Can't you just generate the <natbib> part on the fly as it is read in?
You know it is a \citet after all. That would mean we don't change
the file format and you must already have the code to generate the
<natbib> contents so it should be simple enough to arrange at load or
display time -- you could update the natbib string entry at inset
draw time and this wouldn't have that high a cost.
