Not really, I personally use BibDesk for editing the bibliography  
files, so I haven't created any commands/snippets for editing BibTeX  
files directly, and it's not asked for very much. But of course such  
snippets would be easy to create if it is really useful.

The aux file doesn't have to be there. The \bibliography command  
should be working, if it's not then please send me a sample folder  
with the tex file and corresponding bib file, and I'll try to see  
what's wrong. Also make sure you are running the newest version of  
the bundle from the svn repository.

Basically, if the latex program knows how to find your bib file when  
it compiles, then TextMate's completion command should also be able  
to. If it's not, then that's a bug we need to fix, so please provide  
a minimal example.
