That sounds right.  And I agree with Aaron that we probably don't want a
hard dependency on Zotero on the output side, so maybe citeproc-js is
the way to go.  On the other hand, as Aaron points out, citeproc-java
has a BibTeX parser, and citeproc-js doesn't look like it would be easy
to run from the command line...some sort of JS engine is required in
addition to citeproc-js itself.

I wonder if citeproc-js would run under Guile??  Maybe that would be the
easiest way to turn citeproc-js into a lightweight command line utility
that Org (and hence Emacs) could feel good about depending on.

I know that citeproc-js has tried to be engine-agnostic, so perhaps it can work with Guile. If not, you may also want to look at citeproc-hs and citeproc-rb, both of which are quite complete (they, I believe, pass the entire test suite) and which may be easier to bring in as dependencies (JS engines are still a rarer dependency than Ruby or Haskell).
