Is there a list of these new entry types? Looking at the code for
bibtex2html (for instance
https://github.com/backtracking/bibtex2html/blob/master/bibtex.mli)
I see that entry types are strings, so if there are issues, I guess they
would happen in the generation part but not in the parsing part.

I'm very ignorant here: from my understanding, bibtex2html does not care
about bibtex style, it just takes bibtex data as input and produces
html. Is the problem that some entries are ignored, or is there
something deeper that I'm missing?
