Bruce,
Support for formal local style seems a good idea. Do we need to
consider at
this point the issue of options of footnote citations ? If yes then 'formal
local style' selection that includes variants with exclusions could handle
much of that complexity and take it away from the GUI panel.
Footnote citation options are -
*Force Short/long title,
*Suppress Publisher
regards
David
