Dear all, the contrib package ox-bibtex.el has a function for jumping to a specific bibtex citation key. The current regex assumes a particular indentation style (leading spaces) and only one space between the CUSTOM_ID key and the value of that key. This small patch (hopefully) generalizes the search regex.
I've done only some simple testing but seems to work for my configuration. Thank you, eric -- : Eric S Fraga via Emacs 28.0.50, Org release_9.3.6-520-ge69937
