Ciao Odin,

Interesting thread!

Flexible citation styling is a real world issue for academic writing.

In my own case, for instance, I work in humanities and social science where 
APA & Chicago are often needed. It don't want have to hack that. Just 
switch on per document basis.

*Ideally one should be able to switch between the major citation styles in 
TW*. I think its slowly coming.

Your post is important because it succinctly presents the issues in a 
concrete way.

An issue is the more esoteric citations. For instance "grey literature" or 
"intermittent journals". Its complex to cope with all variations.

YET, for my use, just getting styling working for *the main cases *is good 
enough to work with --- and likely most writers most of the time.

The variant styling solution are likely toggleable between a "click" for a 
good TW programmer?

Side thoughts
