Line number annotations spanning multiple lines appear twice in footnote

Version of reledmac

2.29.0

Description of the problem

Using line number annotations to mark verse numbers in the margin of a biblical text, when the text within \edtext of a footnote spans multiple lines within the same verse (verse 6 in the MWE), the footnote displays two numbers (6-6), as if there were a start and end line, rather than simply 6.

Is it possible to modify the behavior of footnotes so that if the end line number is the same as the start line number, only one number is shown?

Minimal Working Example

\documentclass[12pt]{article}
\usepackage[total={2in, 3in}]{geometry}
\usepackage[series={A},noresetlinenumannotation]{reledmac}
\newcommand{\bv}[1]{\linenumannotation{#1}}
\makeatletter
\Xwraplinenumannotation{\@firstofone}
\renewcommand{\linenumrep}[1]{}
\makeatother
\firstlinenum{1}
\linenumincrement{1}

\begin{document}
    \beginnumbering
    \pstart
        \bv{6} Erat autem Ioannes indutus camelinis pilis, lateribus pelliceo cingulo cinctis, vescebaturque locustis et \edtext{melle silvestri}{\Afootnote{mel quod Ioannes non in horto vel apiario colebat, sed in locis desertis inveniebat.}}, atque huiusmodi verbis publice docebat:\bv{7} “Venit quidam post me, adeo me praestantior, ut ego non sim dignus qui eius calceorum corrigiam pronus solvam.”
    \pend
    \endnumbering
\end{document}

The branch "issue790" add a new hook \Xnoidenticallinenumannotation. Please try it.
