I think we look at the problem from two different perspectives.  You
look at the problem from the "how" perspective, whereas I look at it
from the "why" perspective.  Sure, we can work around everything in Org.
Now, does that mean that Org should try to execute BibTeX blocks when
executing a buffer?  I do not think so.
