If you open the minibuffer (alt-X or View > Toolbars > Command Buffer), you can
type 'citation-insert KEY' (no quotes), where KEY is the key you would use in
\cite. The minibuffer remembers commands, so after the first time you can use
the scroll arrows to retrieve 'citation-insert KEY' and change the KEY (if you
prefer that retyping 'citation-insert'). Unfortunately, while you can bind a
key combination to citation-insert, the shortcut will not work in the minibuffer
(and if used in the text area will pop up the dialog you dislike).
