thanks for pointing out the problem!! I've attached a new version of
the patch, in which the custom exporter backend has an (in many cases
trivial) translator for all currently allowed objects.

I don't think that it would make much sense to add a lot more, with
the possible exception of links, since citations are at most
sentence-sized textual units, not to mention the possible
complications arising for the existing export processors. (What type
of objects could the various LaTeX-based exporters support without
complex changes?)  Since CSL has only a few types of formatting
attributes (font-style, font-variant, font-weight, text-decoration and
vertical-align), if the set of allowed object is radically expanded
then it will probably be more reasonable to define a derived backed,
maybe based on the ascii exporter, but I feel that the current set
doesn't require this solution.

thanks & best wishes,
András
