Dear org community,
It seems that there is a bug (or a thing that was not yet implemented) with rendering tables that contain org-mode citations (i.e., [cite:@paper]) from source block results. Here is an example:
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :results table replace
"Prior research [cite:@paper] suggests that..."
#+END_SRC
#+RESULTS:
| Prior research suggests that... |
The expected outcome should be:
#+RESULTS:
| Prior research [cite:@paper] suggests that... |
It seems that this does not depend on src language (I have also tried with R and got the same issue).
I have already asked it on StackExchange (https://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/75270) and user 'Simka' pointed out that the cause of this issue is somewhere in `orgtbl-to-generic' and it is about undefined export backend for citations.
Kind regards,
Stas

Confirmed.
The problem is rather fundamental one.
Citation processing is supposed to be independent from the export
backends. However, `orgtbl-to-generic' is bypassing the citation
processing and calls `org-export-data-with-backend` directly with ox-org
backend not handling citation objects.
There are multiple issues revealed here:
1. ox.el currently treats missing transcoder info as "export all the
unknown elements/objects and empty strings" - this is rather
forward-incompatible design that may catch users by surprise when Org
adds new syntax elements (as it happened here, with citations)
May ox.el treat missing transcoders as `identity' and only export
empty string when transcoder is set to nil explicitly?
2. Does it even make sense to apply the default oc-basic when exporting
to org? Should we instead introduce something like oc-identity that
does nothing and simply leaves the citations in the original Org
syntax, later possibly processed by the specific export backend?
Then, we can use this oc-identity in the default value of
`org-cite-export-processors': (org identity)?
