Optional "name" field, or checkbox to copy title to name parameter

I've been using Citer on Toolforge the last few days and it's very nice!

I think that it might be good to add a "name" field.

A person could enter the URL into the URL field, and also enter the value for the "name" of the reference. If the field is blank, then the output after hitting submit would be the same as it is now. But if anything was entered in the name field, it will use that for the "name" parameter of the reference.

I suggest this because often I have to edit the name.

Perhaps it would be good to have a checkbox as well... Something like "make title same as name". Though I'm not sure about that yet. Or perhaps "make name the same as title" would be better".
