Hi,

One feature that could be added to JabRef is automatic
import of citations. I'll explain: for instance, in Elsevier
or JSTOR we may have a list of saved citations to
import; instead of downloading the file and than import
it into JabRef, the software (if active) could detect
that the file we are trying to download is a ciations file
and could automatically import it to the opened
database or to a database of our choosing. This would
avoid the tedius procedure of downloading several files
and import them for hundred of times (if you are
importing several times). We just have to choose the
citations, choose the import feature form the website
and thats done!
I don't know if this is easy to implement or not, but
thats just an idea.

Excelent work!

Nuno
