Yes, that's how I originally figured out the templates. Since the  
Preview template provides a compact, formatted representation, it  
needs to deal adequately with the various complements of fields in all  
reference types. The current final template <?$pubType?> doesn't  
handle everything gracefully. For example, there are doubled periods,  
etc., for some entries because of the need to include lots of fields  
that might have content. I think I could do better by adding some  
additional templates for particular reference types and thinking a bit  
more about the final template.
