Tantek suggested on the html-wg IRC channel today that it should be  
possible to use a full structured citation as content of a cite element.

I couldn't agree more.

My comment in the bug suggests allowing for a really vague "<cite>that  
weird bloke in that funny book</cite>" type reference, but I think the  
editorial slant should lean strongly towards encouraging structured  
citations, however they happen to be done...

cheers
