 * I noticed that my 12 citations entered in the post body was displaying as 11 
   citations in the list. And instead of simply having deleted a single problem 
   citation, the stack was shifted up, so that the citation linked number referenced
   a citation intended for the next cite location in the body.
 * Seems I pasted a doi into my WP editor that contained some kind of non-printing
   character in the middle of it that was not obvious in the WP editor. When I saw
   and deleted that character in an external editor and pasted back all worked fine.
 * The expected behavior would be an error message or at least a missing cite number,
   and certainly an otherwise accurate remaining stack.

 * Can you email me some text which causes this. I need to be able to replicate 
   a problem to fix it.
