It works for me as well, but it's still an ugly hack that I cannot advice
friends and colleagues to follow.
Still, I would much rather have quality-support like with entities.

Indeed. Pandoc seems to most sensible. I have a survey of
implementations in on my other computer (in a folder that is not synced
between my PCs).

Maybe something like:
@short-textcite-key, (@parentcite-key) and address@hidden :with options]
(@parencite-key :with options).

I guess. But it can be added gradually.
BTW: Org has an almost-agnostic format for storing citation data via
org-bibtex.el. So perhaps it's easier to go from whatever to
org-bibtex-format and from there to ox-backend-format. I think that's how
pandoc does it as well.
