New Features
	•	Copy Using Template submenu on action and context menus
	•	Can now export a .tgz archive containing BibTeX and linked files
	•	Hidden prefs for changing ISI URLs for proxy testing; currently doesn't seem to work because of WebKit problems
	•	Web of Science search now includes timescited (RFE #1788133)
	•	Web group now supports citeulike.org, acm.org/dl, and Google Scholar via HTML-scraping 
	•	Web group is now enabled by default
	•	Condition template tags now support smaller comparison, and property comparison
	•	Many more accessors and template keys added
	•	New GUI for creating custom export templates (File -> New Template)
	•	Duplicate selection now shows a sheet which asks how to select duplicates
	•	Quick Look plugin for Leopard users
	•	Leopard download location is respected in the editor window's recent download menu
	•	Added support for searching NASA ADS database via z39.50

Bugs Fixed
	•	Non-ASCII characters can be used for type-select, stop type-select when key window closes
	•	Don't change menu item titles for varying numbers of selected pubs
	•	Add some checks for a valid pasteboard, since the system's pasteboard server seems to die periodically, which causes exceptions in our code
	•	PDF document view does a relayout when auto sizing (in the main window)
	•	Fix bug #1791951, where the AppleScript search command failed due to an exception in BibDesk with a badly formed author name
	•	Fix a table column resizing problem; don't use stale xattr defaults
	•	Radio buttons are now used to choose the papers folder
	•	Remove macros selected in the macro window when deleting
	•	Searching triggered by Spotlight is now performed after the main window is set up
	•	File Content search "Stop" button is now correctly disabled after indexing is finished
	•	Scale popup for zoom views now sized to largest item, some drawing improvements
	•	Can now target a specific row in the main table when dropping a file, rather than sniffing the pasteboard during the drag (partial workaround for bug #1799630)
	•	Improve performance when sniffing text formats by only operating on the first 100 characters
	•	Splitview frames are only autosaved when the window's autosave name is set
	•	Fix bug #1803091; avoid collapsing whitespace in the parser, since it fouls up concatenation
	•	Some memory usage optimizations (work around Apple leaks in InternetConfig and ImageIO)
	•	Items using crossref are now displayed correctly in the TeX previews
	•	Hidden pref to disable PubMed lookup for purely numeric filenames (BDSKShouldUsePubMedMetadata)
	•	Fixed outlet for alternate drag/copy template popup in French localization
	•	Don't clear the change count after exporting
	•	TeX commands are now recursively deleted for attributed preview and cleaning
	•	\ldots is now a two-way conversion
	•	Added a sanity check for the crossfade animation
	•	Cite key and pub type are now searchable with database find & replace
	•	Manually check time limit on TeX task runloop, which will hopefully magically fix problems that we can't reproduce
	•	Ensure that an empty error dialog will never be presented for PubMed failures (bug #1814266)
	•	HTML to TeX conversion no longer converts a double quote to typewriter font
	•	No longer display warnings when sniffing the format for text import fails
	•	Text import bookmarks menu allows duplicates
	•	Gradients now display correctly on Leopard, since Apple messed up a bug fix
	•	Zoom button for PDF views now works on Leopard using a different evil hack
	•	Input manager pref pane is invisible on Leopard
	•	Warn if the input manager is installed in ~/Library on Leopard
	•	Fix bug #1825254, BibTeX document used for editor proxy icons instead of Local-Url on Leopard
	•	Fix bug #1825703, crash when closing some sheets on Leopard due to an Apple bug
	•	Don't check for <?xml on COPAC output, since their output has apparently changed again
