According to Prof. Kitchin, it is not frequent. However, if it does
happen it will be very annoying to deal with.

Maybe we can make trailing "/" alias of the same style without slash?
(e.g. cite/citet*/ is treated as alias of cite/citet* even if
cite/citet*/ is not explicitly defined by the processor) I do not think
that we can afford to rely on external processors to take care about
this.
