The problem is that you can't link to a bibtex entry,
[[ref:Author1:YYYY,Author2:YYYY]] is not picked up by org search
function of `org-open-file`. And even if it was, it couldn't link
to several entries at once. So to preserve the ability to jump
quickly to a reference, I quite like the export filter approach,
which I was unaware of (thank you Thomas! ).
