I think while on the topic of title casing, it would be good to put in some
sort of way for the user to override CSL processor's automatic
capitalization (or, conversely, force it). I am particularly concerned with
CMoS (exceptions to the) rules 3 and 7 mentioned
here<http://xbiblio-devel.2463403.n2.nabble.com/title-casing-skip-words-tp7578629p7578635.html>
:
3. Lowercase prepositions, regardless of length, except when they are used
> adverbially or adjectivally (up in Look Up, down in Turn Down, on in The On
> Button, to in Come To, etc.) or when they compose part of a Latin
> expression used adjectivally or adverbially (De Facto, In Vitro, etc.).
7. Lowercase the second part of a species name, such as fulvescens in
> Acipenser fulvescens, even if it is the last word in a title or subtitle.
I would suggest something on the lines of wrapping the words in <span>'s
with class names "title-case" (to force title-casing of skip words as in
rule 3) and "no-title-case" (to prevent title-casing of non-skip words as
in rule 7). It seems that it would be close to impossible for a CSL
processor to figure out exactly when to follow these rules/exceptions.
