Hi Nicolas,

It violates DRY.  It (thus) makes it annoying to export a document to a
new backend: you have to search through all the citations and copy any
:cap keys to the new backend.

Crazy idea: what if there was a “root” backend from which all other
backends were derived?  This would maintain consistency with existing
attribute syntax (and possibly new, as proposed below), but also allow
certain attributes to be passed to all backends.

Nice, I like it.
