        Interesting that you should be doing the same!

        Yet, I have to disagree. Furthermore, it is sad that your cites were so 
        minimal and thereby misleading.

        1) and is not a greek word. Yet it was written in a greek font.
                Thereby, indicating that something is very wrong with the
                coding of the source ! Therefore the triple exclamation.
                I would have used that, too!!

        2) Designers or authors of packages, design things a certain way and
             have their reasons the way things should work and why. Just because
             the original posted is not happy is a different matter.

        3) Apostolos, offers a solution. That is to hand code. 
            Bibliographic work in TeX et al is not good at multi-lingual
            support. A well know fact! So, some tweaking is required.
            
At least, I found his post to the point and helpful. Maybe, not what you
expected or wanted. On the other side I can not say the same of your post.

regards
        Keith.
