Maybe you give it a try.
this may be an option although I never tried if dblatex handles
citations and reference lists well enough for my purposes. I keep my
references in a SQL database and use RefDB to provide them as raw
DocBook bibliomixed entries.
dblatex does well with citations. As for the reference lists, it looks
like RefDB outputs as BibTeX as well. We use dblatex +XeLaTeX with
BibTeX for the references (rather than DocBook entries), and the ff.
processing instruction:
<?bibtex bibfiles="References" bibstyle="sp" mode="all"?>
(which pulls in a BibTeX file References.bib). Then we can take
advantage of the diversity of LaTeX packages for formatting the
bibliography. The result is more than adequate for our purposes. The
one drawback might be that BibTeX doesn't handle Unicode sorts well,
although I think that only bites you if you have non-Roman scripts in
some of your authors' names. (It seems to handle accented Roman scripts
IIRC, but I haven't tested this thoroughly.)
