Not noise at all.  I think I understand where you are coming from
better.

Your comment inspired me to implement
org-export-cite-add-citation-mode-latex in the experimental citation
support I just pushed.  So you can do:

(org-export-cite-add-citation-mode-latex "tsd" "\\mycitecommand[%s][%s]{%s}" 
"\\myparencitecommand[%s][%s]{%s}")

Add to your document:

#+CITATION_MODE: tsd

And citations should just work with your chosen commands.  I’m sure when
advanced citation support comes along (whether from subtypes or plists),
a similarly simple wrapper can be implemented.

I also found your discussion of citation modes vs. styles at
<http://mid.gmane.org/address@hidden> illuminating, so thanks
for that.
