OK. I implemented this on main branch. We'll see how it goes.



Thanks, that sounds like a good change!
Best,

IIUC, this would register `natibib' processor for everyone whenever Org
is loaded. This may not be what you have in mind.

This is actually a thought that occurred to me recently, and I’ve been
considering bringing up on the ML. Thanks for mentioning this.

A more sophisticated solution probably exists, but my thought was that if a cite
export keyword like this is seen:
┌
│ #+cite_export: FORMAT ...
└

and there is no known cite backend `FORMAT', then we could just try running
┌
│ (require 'oc-FORMAT nil t)
└

before complaining that there’s no cite backend FORMAT loaded.

This relies on consistent naming, but since that seems to hold pretty well so
far and failure to load just results in the current behaviour, I’m inclined to
think this would be a good change in terms of user experience.

All the best,
Timothy

Primarily I am asking if there's a way to load the processor as needed
without a user explicitly having to do so.

I probably don't understand autoloading very well, but was thinking of
something like this:

;;;###autoload
(org-cite-register-processor 'oc-natbib ...
