As far as I know, there was not.  This was not settled because in=20
order to settle it, you need to know a bit more about the backend.=20
(Where is the citation data stored? do you have to get it from an=20
external program? if so, which? etc. etc.)

I think there was some agreement that we can do this with option=20
keywords.  There is an existing syntax for specifying=20
bibliographies in contrib/ox-bibtex.el, which probably provides a=20
good model:

#+BIBLIOGRAPHY: bibfilename stylename optional-options  When I was=20
playing around with hooking up the citation syntax to an external=20
citation processor, I was using something similar: I had keywords=20
like

#+CSL_FILE: the-csl-style-file.csl +BIBDB: bibtex testdoc.bib=20

in the header, and used

#+BIBLIOGRAPHY: here

to specify where the bibliography should be placed in the=20
document.  That is obviously not the nicest solution, but the=20
basic idea might be a good starting point.=20


--=20
Best,
