--- Comment #2 from marielle.v...@gmail.com ---
This could potentially inform the VE UI for citoid;
I.e. we could have have one reference dialog, (i.e. the basic reference dialog)
and then if a user pastes a link *into* the reference dialog, that inserts the
citation guessed from the link. And then keep the drop down menu for individual
templates in the ref dialog.
This does take some user discovery; however, I see this commonly being done
with references already- i.e. a ref tag containing only an unformatted url. So
it seems people are already just pasting links into the ref field and this is a
natural enhancement of that work flow.
This, by the way, is what both G+ and Facebook do for links as well, not just
Quora. So there may be already some user comfort with a pasted link becoming
formatted in some fashion.
