- InsetBibtex: There are a few issues here. One is that the output is not very
- nice. This will be solved, though, by a patch of mine I seem to have forgotten
- to finish. To get output that accorded with the BibTeX style, of course, we'd
- have to parse the bbl file. I don't know if that's worth it.
- Another issue concerns cross-references. At the moment, we simply use the
- xref information for every entry, rather than listing the xref separately and
- then referencing it. That should not be terribly hard, but it would take a bit
- of work.
