I prefer the latter. It's explicit, shorter and doesn't hitting shift for
'()' (on my kb). No voodoo. I don't mind either, though.

I prefer to have more expressive keys, e.g. the 'cite' part. But perhaps
it's a good way express extra properties. The thing is, for latex the
extra property is a citation type.

No! I believe (but correct me if I'm wrong) that neither John, Eric, Tom
nor myself have seen a citation like this in the wild. If you have I
might be wrong. It's no easily supported in latex. The latex equivalent
of the above is:
\citeauthor{doe} (\citeyear[p.\ 34]{doe}; see also \textcite*{roe})
Or something like that.
AFAIK,
[cite: @Doe99 p. 34; see also @DoeRoe2000]
→ Doe (1999, p. 34) and see also Doe et al (2000)
or maybe
Doe (1999, p. 34) and Doe et al (see also 2000).
I don't remember.
