I would prefer that this be an integral part of TMG itself.
While add-on software is great (e.g. John's Utility) my preference
is that these should be for unusual things that are beyond the
normal activities of TMG. I believe that being able to output
all data you entered into TMG should be an integral part of TMG.

I don't doubt that this is true, but it does not relate to my wish.
Multiple citation links to a single source are likely separate links,
but TMG clearly presents you with a common Source ID# so that you
are sure you are linking to the same source. I wish for the same
positive feedback for Exhibits.

Lest anyone wonder, I am thrilled with TMG as it is. I only offer
these "wishes" since Jim so boldly :-) asked for such on this topic.
