There are certainly many improvements to bibliographic support that can be 
make in parallel with development of the new bibliographic module, 
particularly functions that are entirely in writer - for example footnote 
citations, user selectable placement of endnote tables, linking citations to 
the database, so they are updated when the database is changed, (and many 
others improvements). These are independent of the database type and the 
citation formating method.

Many of these improvements could be released as soon as they have been made.
