Yes, I didn't mentioned the CSL, but it would one option of formatter/database. If I understood it right, the change to support the CSL will require modifications to the file format and a redesign of some of the dialogs. My suggestion is to make those changes in a way that can support multiple internal and external databases without the need of extensions. The prototype[1] shows this is viable. Under the hood, the prototype was constructed in such a way the mock document and mock dialog doesn't understand how to format the entry text and the reference text. They ask the mock formatter/database to do it. This shows that the insert/edit entry and the file format doesn't need to be tied to a specific formatter/database. If done that way, what will change between the internal database (with CSL), Zotero, Mendeley, EndNote and others is just the URL of the bibliographic database.
