That makes absolutely no sense. That means that an informal paper that
puts all references in footnotes and has no bibliography and does not
need cross-referencing or reference numbering cannot take advantage of a
bibliographic database. And in fact, that is the case shown below. The
footnotes appear only when the comment line is uncommented.
(I also tried \nocite[*] together with \placebtxrendering[method=none]
and also with \placebtxrendering[criterium=none] for the rendering, but
that does not help. It seems that the entries only display when
something gets added to the rendering list.)

As Artie said:\footnote{\placecitation[Schopenhauer1862v2]}
Es wäre gut Bücher kaufen, wenn man die Zeit, sie zu
lesen, mitkaufen könnte, aber man verweschelt meistens
den Ankauf der Bücher mit dem Aneignen ihres Inhalts.
Payne translates this as:\footnote{\cite[entry][SchopenhauerPayne2000]}
Buying books would be a good thing if one could also
buy the time to read them in: but as a rule the
purchase of books is mistaken for the appropriation
of their contents.
% \placebtxrendering [method=dataset]
\stoptext
I understood §5.4 of the manual to mean that rendering definitions
(created by \definebtxrendering and related setups) do not have an
effect on \placecitation (and \cite[field][tag]) commands. Rereading it,
I wonder if the meaning is supposed to be more than that, and to cover
this situation?
Surely this can be changed!
