Description nunotavares 2004-05-21 01:45:30 UTC 
...so when the reader clicks the reference, it jumps to the bibliographic entry
in the bibliographic index. I've searched the archives and am surprised why it
hasn't been already suggested.

Note: this applies to 1.1.2rc2, not 1.1.2.

MRU->ES: please comment before reassigning to UserExp.

Where should the cursor jump if the reference exist 6 times in the document?
The first one? The last one?
Note: a bibliography is not a table of contents, an alphabetical index or
endnotes. A bibliography entry does not contain references to page it has been
inserted in.

For those reasons I'd reject this enhancement

I set David as CC for comments

nunotavares->ES: you're looking at it backwards. The reference/link would be
applied in the body text, not in the bibliographic index. Exactly the opposite
direction of a TOC Index hyperlink.

Right! |(

Clicking on a bibliographic reference (citation) field, should probably bring 
up the Edit Bibliographic entry (citation) dialog. Clicking on 
Footnote/Endnote citation numbers (footnote citation not yet supported) should 
jump to the  Footnote/Endnote.

To grep the issues easier via "requirements" I put the issues currently lying on
my owner to the owner "requirements".
