There is one little issue I see.

Org-ref, and in turn org-ref-cite, have functions, attached via keymap
on the citation face, that allow one to shift the citation-references
within a citation.

I've borrowed some of that for oc-bibtex-actions as well.

So if I insert a citation using org-cite-insert, I get this:

[cite:@samers2002; @kohn2005]

If I then shift the right one left, I get this, which seems less than ideal:

[cite: @kohn2005;@samers2002;]

WDYT?
