Not 100% of what you mean by "in org-mode" : do you mean this would be
useful to keep references in org-mode (as your sentence below suggests)
and be able to add keywords to the BibTeX entries interactively ?

I guess people on emacs-orgmode list could answer that.

In any case, I'm not using org-mode for this right now, but I can easily
imagine how this would be done : each BibTeX entry would be an Org entry
and we would use properties to store information on it. Then an exporter
would be able to export this to BibTeX, refer, endnote.  Pretty exciting
IMO !
