Just a thought: maybe start a separate repo as you work on it, and to get feedback, and if it makes sense to merge here when closer to " done",...

> @bdarcus Selectrify turns the bibtex functions into proper commands which is needed for Embark. Oh right; it's a macro! So something like [this](https://gist.github.com/bdarcus/e4d878d7e6841056d12645deeef48266), which requires just embark and completiion-bibtex,...

Thanks @minad. I was just trying to see what the change would look like. If @mtreca agrees, he can adapt it further. > ... all these functions could be implemented...

For people thinking this would be cool, these ideas evolved into this independent project: https://github.com/bdarcus/bibtex-actions It's now on MELPA, and soon to be included in the Doom `biblio` module (to...

> Why wait on the merging of the selectrum module? I don't think your bibtex-actions package depends on selectrum, does it? It doesn't, but `doom` has this module config system...

I implicitly raised this issue a few years back with #192, as I use biblatex data. What's the status ATM?

Date seems a particularly important one perhaps easy to support without problem? Edit: already supported :-) Biblatex recently adopted the [EDTF](https://www.loc.gov/standards/datetime/) ISO date representation, which gives wider latitude to handle...

I ran across one issue: Library display and such will use `date`, but reference formatting will not.
