no DOI and/or URL in downloadable snippets #4

Hello!

Although the DOI is used to retrieve a citation and is displayed in the HTML snippet, it is not included in the "Endnote", "Refworks" or "BibTeX" downloads. Try http://citeas.org/cite/10.5281/zenodo.18105 for example. Same when using a URL to retrieve a citation: http://citeas.org/cite/https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=stringr

From a user's perspective, this bug (?) rocks the boat so to speak, because exactly the ID they used to find the missing citation info has to be added manually after (downloading and) importing an entry in(to) their citation manager.

Please excuse this report, if this is a known incompleteness of the back- or front-end currently. I searched the former's repo as well.

Kind regards, and all the best for 2018 :-)
