How about shift-ctrl-T ? Is that taken? I tend to think that T is more 
appropriate for LaTeX than L, or at least just as fine, and it will be 
natural to anyone using cmd-T in TeXShop (I think it was cmd-T, haven't 
used TeXShop in a while).

Hm, checked again and it works fine now. I wonder what my problem was 
before...
There is the following behavior I can't understand though. In my case I 
have a comment that says:
% Kashiwara, ${B}$-functions and holonomic systems. {R}ationality of 
roots of ${B}$-functions
and it becomes
% Kashiwara, B}-functions and holonomic systems. {R}ationality of roots 
of B}-functions
Not really a big deal, especially since I changed the command and don't 
keep the comment, but I am just curious what happens to the dollar 
signs and the left brace.

Already did, and now it works great! Thanks for the suggestion.
One thing though: If i press cancel instead of selecting a reference, 
it replaces the selection with the word "false".
One more suggestion. How about, if there is no selection and no current 
word, it just produces a list of all the bibliography items?
