    initial v1  
    1 I've appended some screenshots and a sample test fixture that illustrate what the plugin will do. The processor test suite currently contains 677 fixtures, mostly hand-coded (by me). Validating individual styles against similar test suites will involve the creation of thousands of fixtures, which is not sustainable without an automated tool. Extending the "Show Editor" windows in Add Citation and Edit Bibliography in this way makes it easy to involve users in the testing process.

    33However ... I now realize that styleID alone will not be enough; we'll also need access to at least two portions of the citation registry: citeproc.registry.registry (for the full list of items cited), and citeproc.registry.citationreg.citationByIndex (for the sequence of citations preceding the current sample). That does involve more exposure, I'm not sure what your take will be on that.
