Research direction

The issue is a design question raised in a review comment on pull request #842 (discussion r4236687394), and the payload names no files or tests. Start by reading that discussion to see how citations and their keys are currently handled. Done means a maintainer has decided whether citation keys may be reused, and the decision is recorded in the issue before any code changes.
