Probably does take more testing and thought, but I guess I was
thinking of something like an org-crossref-insert interactive
function, that could make use of functions like
org-ref-refproc-referenceables, to provide better out-of-box support
for at least inserting cross-references.

Perhaps like org-cite-insert, that could be configurable, so one could
plug in a different such functions.

I was toying with an idea like this earlier:
