Oh, you're talking about the cite keys. I thought you were talking
about the (default) cite commands, because you mentioned things like
\cite, \citep etc. Indeed, that could be handled using a "Did Generate
Cite Key" script hook.
For sure BibDesk would not know about the files you want to change
(and never will), that should be set in the script. For the rest it
should not be that difficult, but depends mostly on the editor you
want to write it for (if and how it makes find & replace scriptable)
The bibdesk part for the script hook is mostly similar to the sample
script hook.
