I am in the same fix -- writing in Org but needing to submit most things 
in Word. Damned annoying.

It really would be nice to see Org get the references/bibliography 
problem fixed up properly. The Pandoc version of Markdown does it well. 
As you note, bibtex and csl is a killer combination.

Org is so nice to use for authoring that I can't give it away. I have a 
book manuscript due in May and currently all my citations are using the 
[[cite: key]] format with ox-bibtex. It is far from satisfactory and I'm 
sure that May will see me tearing my hair out (what little is left).

Cheers,
Alan
