* [org-mode] make citation object available to org-cite-make-insert-processor SELECT-STYLE?

I'm working on a select-style function for org-cite, where I am adding
previews to the style list.

Current screenshot, with the natbib mapping:

But to do that best and most consistently (next step is CSL, for
example), I need the citation accessible from there, so I can run the
export processors to generate the previews.

Could we possibly tweak SELECT-STYLE to take one argument: citation?

Or am I missing something?

Bruce

When you are inserting a whole new citation, what would be the value?
nil? What would you display then?

The first iteration of the idea behind the request is this style selection UI:

https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/1134/126531061-40cf47ab-0c7f-42ac-8ddb-341e7ab70d4b.png

So the idea is to present a preview of the style/variant output when
selecting the style.

Like:

/          (Doe, 2019)

... or maybe even multiple columns:

/          (Doe, 2019)       \citep

I'm thinking the best way to build this UI is to iterate through
org-cite-support-styles, and run at least the default export processes
to create that preview annotation,

As my thinking has evolved (and there's been a lot of discussion on
this the past week), I see two options:

1. Generate the previews from the citations at point. This was the
idea that promoted the suggestion here, since I can't get access to
that citation data if I use org-cite-make-insert-processor.

2. Instead, have a standardized example record just for the preview.
With this approach, the citation context isn't relevant.

As to your question, do any style UIs currently allow you to select a
style on a new citation before selecting the keys?

my solution to this (which I think worked well) is to select the keys, and
insert a default style, and then you run a command that updates the style.
that way you can get the keys that are in the citation easily from
org-element-context, and then I can make a preview for each style that is
consistent with the best guess for what the exporter is. (based on the
cite_export keyword, or a default choice).

I added a citation argument to select-style. Let me know if it works for you.
