Also, I would appreciate some feedback on whether the google scholar
result url should go in the URL field (as it is currently) or should
only be added as a remote url resource.

I'm not yet sure how to do the latter via the BibItem object, but it
might be the right way to do it now that I think about it since you
don't necessarily want that url becomming part of your bibliography
unless it is an online only journal.
