I tried finding an answer to this in the archive and the manual
but I couldn't find anything definitive, sorry if I missed something.
I've been using the local-file url to hold a reference to the
PDF to the paper. This has worked well and have allowed my to
share the references (through subversion) with others (non-mac,
non-bibdesk users). Now when I played around with 1.3.14 it adds
the Bdsk-File-1 and Bdsk-Url-1 fields for converted records
while keeping the original local-url and url fields.
For new records the local-urls and url fields are not generated
when I drag a file to a record.
I understand the rationale for doing this, but is there a way to
keep the old behavior, that is creating a local-url field and
use the url field? And not generating the Bdsk-File/Bdsk-Url fields.
From the mailing list:

>Url field to a linked URL.
If I understand this correctly, the local-url and url usage will
not be supported in the future and if I want to keep the old
format then I have to manage this manually.
The reason I would like to see this is that when I share the
bibtex file with others it would be a bit odd for them to see
these fields.
