I think we need to improve the documentation. The goal would be to make people 
_not_recommend to "access Insert > List/TOC > BibTEX > Add > Browse and select 
your BibTEX database", but to advise them to store the bib files in the TEXMF 
path if there are not any specific workflow constrains which require the file 
to be in the working directory (and explain the advantages of the TEXMF 
location).
