Dear list,

I am in the process of publishing my org-written doctoral thesis in Law
and am trying to meet my publisher’s formatting requirements, which --
sadly -- are specifically tailored towards the use of MS Word, but I am
thankfully allowed to use LaTeX, as long as I make the formatting match
to their likening.

So, they want the bibliography entries to be formatted like this:

    Last Name, First Name: This is a long title of this
       work so it causes a hanging indent, edition place year.
    -: This is another a long title of this other
       work by the same person so it causes a hanging indent,
       edition place year.

I implemented this in my CSL style. However.

They specifically instruct me that the distance of the hanging indent is
4mm (I found `org-cite-csl-latex-hanging-indent' and set it to "4mm" --
success). They also require that works by the same author are listed
with a leading em dash followed by a colon (fine, my CSL style does this
with `subsequent-author-substitute="—"' on the <bibliography> element).

But then they require that in these cases of subsequently equal authors
that there is a “tab stop” between the colon (:) and that title of the
work at 4mm so that the title aligns with the hanging indent length. I
am at a loss at how to achieve this, and whether this can be done via
org options, or by modifying the CSL style, or by postprocessing the
generated LaTeX code in some way.

Obviously, I use CSL for my citations via citeproc.el and export to
LaTeX. I would be grateful for any hints.

Thanks in advance.
