Well, here's the citation field switches in Microsoft's Open XML format, which we have to be able to convert in and out of:

\l The text in this switch's field-argument specifies the locale which shall be used in conjunction with the specified bibliographic style to format the citation in the document. \f The text in this switch's field-argument specifies the prefix which shall be prepended to the citation. \s The text in this switch's field-argument specifies the suffix which shall be appended to the citation. \p The text in this switch's field-argument specifies the page number associated with the citation. \v The text in this switch's field-argument specifies the volume number associated with the citation. \n Specifies that the author information shall be suppressed from the citation. \t Specifies that the title information shall be suppressed from the citation. \y Specifies that the year information shall be suppressed from the citation. \m The text in this switch's field-argument specifies the Tag (ยง7.6.2.65) element value for another source to be included in this citation's field result.

So translating:

        locale -- not sure why we need this?
        prefix -- already have
        suffix -- already have
        page -- already have (but richer, because not limited to pages)

And then a second group which is more the flags I was asking about:

        suppress-author
        suppress-year
        suppress-title

Am still not really clear when you'd need the last two, but would be happy to recommend these. But since here they are flags like this, it might be valuable to have these as dedicated attributes, rather than simple values of a single attribute (which would not allow one to mix the options).

Any options?
