[pmwiki-users] data from wiki page rather than file

I am interested in hints for how I might modify the BibtexRef cookbook recipe.
My problem is that the current recipe calls for markup that refers to a static
bibfile.bib, e.g. {[bibfile.bib,reference]}. This is not very wiki-like;
modifications cannot be done to add or edit the BibTeX source without having
access to the file system or uploading a file. Is there a way to modify the
routines ParseBib and ParseBibFile in bibtexref2b.php to obtain information from
a page instead of parsing a file?
In general, is there an accepted way to have markup for a page depend upon and
manipulate raw content in another page, not just include it? Could this be done
with knowledge of modification times, so that a cached page does not have to
regenerate if its dependencies are older than its last modification date?
Thanks,
--Carl
