its not really a bug in vim. i could convince vim to also use dashes and 
other signs when autocompleting. but i dont know to well about that, and 
especially the side effect.

true. i will go for the applescript solution first. is there a 
repository for bibdesk-applescripts, where i could submit it? i know at 
least one other scientist personally, who is thinking about switching 
form jabref to bibdesk. so may be there is a bigger interest in such a 
script.

true, but i sometime forget to check the entry, and then just 
re-autogenerate them all. and its simply cleaner to have all bibtex-keys 
alike.
