Description

First of all, massive thanks for this plugin. It's just what I was looking for!

The only thing I'm kinda missing right now is the ability to have the task point to the item on the Zotero web client instead of the publication link or the URI of the desktop client (which is what I'm using in the meantime). This would allow easy access on my iPad (where I do most of the reading) and on the PCs at work (which do not have Zotero installed).

I don't know if it helps, but Zutilo has an option to copy the item URI and that URI selects the link on the Zotero Web client instead of the desktop.

Thank you once again!

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate how Zutilo generates the Zotero web client URI by examining its source code or documentation. Then implement a similar token for Zotodo that constructs the URI using the item key and library ID from Zotero API.
