`biblatex-sbl` should support `nametitledelim`. This would make it more consistent with the standard styles and easier to customise.

enhancement

Since `biber` is only run once on the documentation and test files, a clean build will not handle nested citation commands (e.g., those containing `\citeseries`). Consider using `latexmk`?

build

When two abbreviations are used that differ only in italic/upright font, only one is included in the list of abbreviations. Both should be printed.
