FrameMaker doesn't do endnotes either, but there is a workaround, if you're sufficiently bloody-minded, that probably has an analog with ID now that CS4 has xrefs. In FM you generate a list of footnotes (can ID do this?), paste the list at the end of the document, apply your preferred endnote format to all the paragraphs, giving them autonumbers, and then you work through your document, systematically replacing each footnote number in the text with an x-ref to the paranum of the appropriate note at the end of the doc. In FM, replacing the footnote number with the xref also wipes the footnote from the bottom of the page. The process can be automated -- I did it for FM6 in OS8 with an Applescript. Maybe something similar is possible for ID if you need endnotes before Adobe adds them (if it ever does).
