Happy I could help! The \btxflushauthornormal command should handle the
authorconversion switch that you want. Just remember that if you need to
use different et al. settings in citations as well, you should use
\currentbtxciteauthorbyfield!

After I have seen your code snippet, the command \btxflushauthornormal
grabbed my attention. This command and its variations are indeed what
I was looking for. As I think the documentation doesn't mention these
advanced commands, I didn't even know they exist.
Thanks for sharing your discovery!
Nevermind, it looks like there's an even more deliberate and succinct way
to handle this! In publ-ini.mkiv, the \currentbtxciteauthorbyfield command
shows how to print the author field mapped according to the cite style:
```
\unexpanded\def\currentbtxciteauthorbyfield
{\begingroup
Okay, I've made some progress! Thankfully, the authorconversion rules can
be overridden using some of the methods defined in publ-ini.mkiv. I now
have something like this in my rendering's .mkvi file:
```
\doifelse {\currentbtxcitealternative} {entry} {
% Normal order for in-text citations
Hi,
I'm trying to implement a custom bibliography rendering where in-text
citations (specifically, citations with alternative=entry) are not
identical to the entries in the bibliography list. Following a pattern I've
seen in publ-imp-chicago.mkvi, I've been able to implement most of the
features
