What I'd like to happen is the following. Suppose the acronym ci is confidence interval or CI. If in one section of my document (let's say the abstract) I write \acr{ci} I'd still like to see confidence interval (CI), but then in the main text I'd still like to see confidence interval (CI) the first time I use it.

I've just release acronyms v2.0.0, which includes the newer shortcode syntax that may help you in this case. Instead of using \acr{ci}, you can now use {{< acr ci >}}. To force having your acronyms appear as if it was the first usage, you can use {{< acr ci first_use=true >}} (which was not possible with the legacy \acr{ci} syntax).

I understand this can be cumbersome if you have a lot of acronyms, so I will work on a new feature that allows to reset the usage counters in the document, but in the meantime you can use this technique.
