By the way, can the bibliographic fields be used to get citation /
reference as number, inside brackets, e.g. [1] etc. ? I m a beginner
to Sphinx - i suppose you experienced can give advice. I would be very
surprised if i m the only one who would like to see referencing /
citations type set as is  standard in many places.
Thanks
