I was typesetting bibliography references with the command \cite[data][ref] and then found that a spce preceded the author name; surrounding the space with X and Y, it gives "X Yauthor" instead of "XYauthor
I was able to trace it down to the macro invertedshortauthor in thise case, but I suspect the others (invertedauthor, normalauthor, normalshortauthor) will exhibit the same phenomenon.
I hate to tell you this because you spent so much time on it, but this has been adressed in the beta already.
Finally another observation on the typesetting by \cite[data][ref]. When typesetting a reference ending on a period, for example "Publ. Co. Inc.", the result has a double period "Publ. Co. Inc.." That looks somewhat silly.
I'll saee what I can do about that, but it is a bit harder to fix. Cheers, Taco
