  • Change your citekey
  • Run Storage Scanner
  • Observe Items with unpinned citation keys change before your eyes

I am not sure this is bug, but I think a few words of warning should be added in the readme or popup.

Thanks for your work.

This is going to be difficult to work around. I think the best I can do is a facility to disable key updates. Zotero registers a tag being added/removed as the item being changed, and only tells me after it has changed that it has changed, but not how. So I can't tell whether it was just a tag change.

I'd have to do diffs before-after to detect what is or is not a relevant change to an item, because Zotero won't tell me, and I don't get notified of a "before". While technically not impossible to do, it's not really realistically feasible.
