I need to repeat my experiments, but I think it worked to use simply \cite in the bibtex entry. Ah, here is one example. It uses xampl.bib, which comes with old distributions of ConTeXt (e.g. teTeX 3.0's distribution).
Yeah, that's how I expected it to be done.
[Taco: The reference to Knuth below comes out as (Knuth, 1981c) even though there are no other 1981 entries for Knuth cited in the text. Is that hard to fix given ConTeXt's way of dealing with bibtex, in that it just incorporates the entire database, in which there are several 1981 entries from Knuth?]
Problematic. There is a small bit of influence possible: the `c' is inside macro (\maybeyear) that could be redefined (nullified), but that is a document-global solution, and it may not even work too well at that. It's been a long time since I looked at this problem. It is not totally unsolvable, but definately not simple either. Best, Taco
