It would be very useful to have the option to specify how the citation keys are generated automatically. In JabRef I have the option that only the first four letters of the first author's name are used rather than the entire name (plus the year as it is default in Mendely). It's simply annoying to type out the whole name when I reference a paper in my latex documents. For me that is pretty much a deal breaker whether I use the mendeley generated bib file or the one by JabRef. Thanks.
