Re: SilverPlatter default change suggestion

[Matt Wilcox <matthew.wilcox@yale.edu>]

Sounds good to me.  The only drawback I can see would be that it might change 
the default for downloading from short labels to long labels--something that 
might mess up people popping their citations into endnote.  Endnote needs the 
short labels to process the records.  But the user can change the option back to 
short labels when downloading if they know to do so.

But this said, i imagine the number of people using stuff like endnote and 
reference manager is small compared to the number that use the databases and 
would benefit from more understandable field names.
