Subject: DOCBOOK-APPS: Re: Bibliography management/BibTex equivalent

Right. The 'cooked' style is definitely a convenience and if you
republish articles in different journals it's clearly "a bad thing."

I think what's needed here is the equivalent of a BibTeX for DocBook.
That is, something that takes biblioentry's and a style and produces
bibliomixed's. I think that's a lot saner than trying to get the
stylesheets to do it all.
