I do, yes. There wasn't a problem to be solved. :) My format looks like
 <div class="book">
 <span class="title"> Foo </span>
 </div>
BibTeX has
 @Book{Thingy,
 title = { Foo }
 }
Looks rather similar. But I didn't design it that way consciously because of
BibTeX - I designed it that way because it seemed to be the simplest and most
obvious way of doing it. Perhaps the authors of BibTeX thought so too. :)

Apocalypse... "I didn't change anything", "My e-mail doesn't work",
"I can't print" and "Is the network broken?".
