A long description of the functionality is given in https://github.com/subhramit/jabref/issues/13

@Siedlerchr thoughts on what to do about this? This is not natively supported by the generator functions we have right now (from citeproc), and I forgot to disable the button. Initial thoughts (if we want to add this): Will have to manually parse and forcefully format from the .csl file.

Out of scope for CSL atm. This refs probably https://github.com/michel-kraemer/citeproc-java/issues/105

Testing this feature can be done with "Modern Language Association 9th Edition"

Current behaviour:

Cite: ✅ This is a test (Tokede et al.).

Cite-in-Text: ✅ (Tokede et al.) It has been shown that this is a test too.

With Cite special (not yet implemented):

❌ According to Tokede and colleagues or Tokede and others, this is yet another test (22).
