Thank you. This will certainly be helpful in some cases. The case for cb2Bib is somewhat different, as once the template is filled in, one may save it to .bib file, and one may select which file. If one were able to use a pipe, xclip, or a fifo file, perhaps this could be made immediately available to org-bibtex-read.

It sounds like asking the cb2bib developers to either automatically copy completed entries to the clipboard, or to add a button implementing this behavior would be ideal.
