Paul,
Just out of curiosity, is there a difference between using two
braces per
side vs. using one brace per side? I've used one and wonder if using
two is
more powerful.

I don't know of a difference. BibTeX uses (and Jabref adds) a pair of
braces to delimit the contents of each field, so in order to lock in a
verbatim name or an accented letter, you need another pair of braces
inside the first (which are not seen by LaTeX). I'm not sure what would
happen if you added yet another pair (so that LaTeX saw a nested pair of
braces). Maybe the innermost braces would actually get printed? (Just
guessing.)
