Parts I like:
1) a parenthetical citation for a single work with no prefix and
suffix may be written by just surrounding the key with brackets,
like: [@Doe99].
2) an in-text citation for a single work with no prefix and suffix
may be written as a /bare/ key, without brackets, like: @Doe99.
I recently cracked up something similar for a paper we are working on, and
I think it's nice. I have yet to get the verdict from my coauthor,
though.
Parts that I don't care for:
[cite: whatever (@Doe99) whatever]
Not intuitive to me, but I could get used to it.
Parts I hate:
The flag is either `@' or `&'. `@' [...] The optional hyphen (`-')
Too many weird symbols that I won't be able to remember, much less explain
to somebody else.
`%%( ... )'.
Just too odd. Extensibilty should not be delegated to some weird
construct outside of the element in question.
