Multiple citations with natbib are limited in the sense that individual
citations within them don't carry pre- and post-notes. BibLaTeX does
away with this restriction.

IMO yes, too.
The org-export-cite-add-citation-mode-latex function that Aaron Ecay
wrote allows the author to choose (implicitly) which package to use. I
like this design because it can accommodate new packages without changes
to the Org mode code.

| Your comment inspired me to implement
| org-export-cite-add-citation-mode-latex in the experimental citation
| support I just pushed. So you can do:
|
| (org-export-cite-add-citation-mode-latex "tsd"
| "\\mycitecommand[%s][%s]{%s}" "\\myparencitecommand[%s][%s]{%s}")
|
| Add to your document:
|
| #+CITATION_MODE: tsd
|
| And citations should just work with your chosen commands. I’m sure when
| advanced citation support comes along (whether from subtypes or plists),
| a similarly simple wrapper can be implemented.
`-------------------------------------------------------------------------
I haven't found time to experiment with the citation developments or to
read through the developing code base. Was this feature of Aaron's
experimental support subsequently dropped?
All the best,
Tom
