Got it. Thanks.

Is it possible to expand links, too? If I have
#+CAPTION: Data from [[textcite:ladefoged08:_variab_hawaii][;]].
I get
\caption{Data from [[textcite:ladefoged08:_variab_hawaii][;]].}
My textcite link type is here:
#+name: define-biblatex-textcite-link
#+begin_src emacs-lisp :results silent :exports none
(org-add-link-type
"textcite" 'ebib
(lambda (path desc format)
(cond
((eq format 'html)
(format "(<cite>%s</cite>)" path))
((eq format 'latex)
(if (or (not desc) (equal 0 (search "textcite:" desc)))
(format "\\textcite{%s}" path)
(format "\\textcite[%s][%s]{%s}"
(cadr (split-string desc ";"))
(car (split-string desc ";")) path))))))
#+end_src
