Thanks!
Here are more comments:
1. I am looking at C-- C-u prefix, and I am not sure if it is ideal
What I think might be better is:
- make a short C-- ('- argument) the switch
- make the switch customizable (if users do not like C--)
2. DOI copy command will err without user-readable message if there is
no DOI in a given BibTeX record. Instead, a user-error should be displayed
3. I think we should add "browse URL/DOI" command to the default
menu. Also, "copy URL" - that makes sense as a companion to DOI (some
references only have URL, but no DOI)
4. Moving towards my item (2) in the plan, we need to generalize
(transient-define-prefix org-cite-basic-follow ...) into a macro that
can work for arbitrary command; not just for `org-cite-basic-follow'.
Let me know if you want my help on how to write such a macro.
5. If we are going to have multiple commands with menu+menuless
versions, it probably makes sense to create a minor mode that will
enable/disable menus everywhere. In other words, instead of
individual commands having dedicated option like
`org-cite-basic-follow-ask', we make a minor mode that can be
enabled/disabled. That minor mode will have a global customization
that will list which commands should use menus.
