I implemented some of this partially. I made it so you can specify the
default cite link in a user variable, with a default of cite. When you type
C-c ], this format will automatically be used. If you want to choose
another format, type C-u C-c ] which will prompt you for a type, and then
use the reftex-citation command to complete it. I added most of the
citation types I know of to this. Most of those will not work with
completion. I did make the cite link completion function use the default
link type, so that it will at least do what you want. I might add
completion functions for all the link types, it is just a lot of cut and
pasting. and I do not use that much. I just wanted to see if I could do it
;)

I also added addbibresource as a link type, and updated org-ref to be able
to use that instead of bibliography.

Thanks for the ideas!
