No, I don't think there's anything Org should provide. I just wanted to be sure

Ah, that's good to know. I hadn't realised that.

The docstring talks about a "citation object", and the "citation or citation
reference object at point". Do I assume correctly that these are structures as

Great, thanks!

Yes, this was certainly very helpful. Thank you for your answer and thank you
for all the hard work you've put in.

The same goes for everyone else who put time and effort into making org-cite
happen, of course. :-)
