Please replace "some miracle occurs" with the conversion service of your choice, for instance Zotero or some library software hacks that libraries tend to use. There is nothing wrong with specific bibliographic formats but its not their purpose to create citations (counterexamples: BibTeX and RIS).
 
== Embedding CSL records in twitter annotations ==
 
On the Code4lib mailing list it has been discussed to embed bibliographic data in twitter annotations. If this annotations contain CSL records then you could display a bibliographic reference in the citation style of your choice.
 
A twitter annotation is a JSON object with up to 512 bytes (later more):
 
* http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/what_twitter_annotations_mean.php
* http://groups.google.com/group/twitter-meta
 
The CSL input format is also JSON but you need to specify a root element and how to deal with multiple references.
