    I really like the way 'refer' lets you cite by any field (e.g.,
tag, author, keyword, etc).  Sure you can get ambiguous references,
but it does warn you!  :-)  I find using Bibtex difficult because of
this...

    Since you have probably guess that my tags are not always the
author names, sorting by tag in the bibliography doesn't work very
well for me.  

    Just some thoughts...
