+Thinking of simple ways to reduce query parse errors and handle more queries as
+expected. In particular:
+
+- handle slashes in query tokens (eg, "N/A" without quotes)
+- handle semi-colons in queries, when they are not intended as filters
+- if query "looks like" a raw citation string, detect that and do citation
+ parsing in to a structured format, then do a query or fuzzy lookup from there
+
+
+## Questions/Thoughts
+
+Should we detect title lookups in addition to full citation lookups? Probably
+too complicated.
+
+Do we have a static list of colon-prefixes, or load from the schema mapping
+file itself?
