This seems backward and wrong /to me/. Why not global options? I actually think we "agreed" on this earlier. #+cite: text-cite #+(cite): parenthesis-cite Or #+cite: numeric #+(cite): footnote-cite This is why I asked Tom earlier if he normally uses more than two citation TYPES. Presumably citeauthor and citeyear works irrespective of the main citation type. So I still think that having two TYPES handy will meet most requirements. —Rasmus -- m-mm-mmm-mmmm bacon!
