Well... Providing an Elisp interface to Zotero is on my "Someday,
Maybe" list and at least there is a successful attempt to talk to
Zotero using MozRepl[1] (after I've discovered that Zotero's SOAP
interface was abandoned).

With regards to citations I started to think about[2] writing a
processor for the Citation Style Language (CSL)[3] in Elisp.  For this
there wouldn't necessarily be an interaction with Zotero, but the
possibility of using citation styles in CSL to format bibliographic
entries for HTML or plain text export.

The question is what kind of workflow you are imaging.  I started
with: Insert a reference to an entry in Zotero and provide pretty
markup when exporting the file.
