<cite> is a single element.

A full bibliographic reference will typically contain a selection from:
Article name
Journal name
Authors name(s)
Editors  name(s)
Date of publication

and probably a few other things. As you can see, each item needs to be
kept distinct from each other, so a single container is not enough. A
suitable micro-format would be great, but the point is that regardless
of what non-sighted users require, a visual user requires a visual
distinction. Clearly each item is of fairly equal importance, so neither
<em> or <strong> is appropriate, semantically speaking.
