Strictly speaking this would be the optimal situation.  The thing is
that different importers might provide citation data.  Since the only
usage of this data is in the Blends rendering it could be triggered
accordingly I do not see an honest practical problem.  If there would be
a simple solution to use one transaction that would be welcome, thought.
