Fair enough. I did not realize that, I will no longer this feature, then.

I'd rather use a "pure org" option. My solution is as follows. Replace
all description list items, like

  - <<BIGO1994>>
[[http://www.ing.unitn.it/~bigoni/paper/eigenvalues.pdf][Bigoni and
Zaccaria (1994)]] :: D. Bigoni and D. Zaccaria, /On the eigenvalues of
the acoustic tensor in elastoplasticity/, European Journal of
Mechanics - A/Solids 13(5):621-638, 1994

With headings

* [[http://www.ing.unitn.it/~bigoni/paper/eigenvalues.pdf][Bigoni and
Zaccaria (1994)]]
  :PROPERTIES:
  :CUSTOM_ID: BIGO1994
  :HTML_CONTAINER_CLASS: sb-bib
  :END:

The trick being to use HTML_CONTAINER_CLASS to tune the appearance of
these headings from the CSS file. Although a bit more verbose, this
solution exports links correctly.

... Which is way beyond my elisp capabilities!!!

Anyway, thanks for this very helpful answer. Orgmode is great!

Best regards,
