But yes, to clarify: bibtex-completion is independent of the frontend. I was mostly removing my dependency on it to get some of the benefits of the new parsebib release (namely CSL JSON support), and because I had some ideas I wanted to explore. But in any case, bibtex-completion provides no front-end; you still need a completing-read function for that, and I think bibtex-actions provides a good one. Also, you need to wrap it's functions to get interactive commands.
