One issue I had and couldn't find a good solution for back then is that the macro to generate the bibliography only uses one style/type. So for example: <<showrefs title:"References">> Would generate all the reference as they were journals. If you hack/made a copy of this macro for books, it would generate all the references as books. <<showrefs-books title:"Booklist">>
This is fine if all your references are all the same. So either only journal's articles or only books. But I often found that my list of references would contain different types of sources. Some books, some websites, some articles. And to rewrite the macro so that it would recognise the type of reference and adjust it's style was (and is) above my skill level back then, so I went for a low-tech solution of writing out the correct reference in field and using that to generate the referenceslist.
