I do the latter (all my bib databases are in the home texmf path, so they are 
in that list). That's why I wouldn't call this "example bibs".

Actually, I think that this should be encouraged. I think most people use 
their bib databases for more than one document, so a common place makes sense. 
Plus, you do not have to care for paths (i.e. when working on different 
machines). So my counter-argument would be that bib databases outside texmf 
should be the exception, not the rule.

As to the GUI: To begin with, I think some tooltips would help a lot.
