Yes, there is. Captions are somewhat fragile: they may or may not be
included in the final output. So this might introduce some subtle bugs,
such as pointers (op. cit., or ibid) to non-existing references. For the
same reason, footnotes references are not allowed in citations either.
I don't know if the benefits outweigh these possible complications.
