URL in bibliography metadata?

URL in bibliography metadata?

[Jack Bates]

Would you consider a patch to replace `UTF8.readFile` in `readBibtex` 
[1] with `fetchItem`, like in `readCSLFile` [2], to make pandoc-citeproc 
handle the case where the bibliography metadata is the URL of a remote file?

Yes. This seems a good idea. It's possible there's
some reason not to do it, but I can't think of one
now.
