Hi Piotr,

I did assemble such a solution (with much help from Hans and Wolfgang). It's 
not enough to put it into a complete module yet (although I will probably do 
that sometime soon) and it currently only works with a recent beta of MkIV. 
(It can also be changed easily to work with MkII, but it won't correctly 
recognize repeating citations over page breaks ... long story ;-))

Just put the attached file into the same dir (or near) your document where 
you want to use it and include it with "\module[mycite]".

To use it simply replace \cite[key] with something like \mycite[key]
[page=123, chapter=1.5, suffix={Some manual inserted text.}]
These three parameters are each optional.
Since I wrote this for a German document, you may also want to modify the 
strings in the head of t-mycite.tex. ("Ebenda" = "Ibidem", "S." = Page, 
"vgl." = compare/reference, "Kap." = chapter)

Best Regards,
Andreas.
