Templates, csl files, metadata files, and defaults can be stored in 
directories inside Pandoc's data dir. I find myself wanting to do something 
similar with bibliographies. Is there a reason why Pandoc doesn't support 
that?

I seem to recall that when the data dir was '~/.pandoc' (on Linux) this 
would work.

(Looking this up in the manual has also made me wonder what the difference 
is between saying that, e.g., `--template` takes 'FILE|URL' and, e.g., 
`--bibliography` and `--csl` take a FILE, which can be a URL. Do some 
things that take FILE not allow it to be a URL? For example, neither 
`--defaults` nor `--metadata-file` mention a URL. Also, some of these flags 
look in the resource path, before the data dir, and some don't, at least 
according to the manual.)
