Formatting "subsequent-author-substitute" and using it in-line
Hi there
I'm currently toying around with CSL and trying to recreate a legal citation style used most in my country. With that, I've run into two problems:
As a subsequent-author-substitute, we usually use "idem.", no problem there. However, latin expressions should be italicised wherever possible, and I see no option to format subsequent-author-substitute without changing cs:names or its child elements, which would also affect the actual author names, delimiters or pre-/suffixes.
Essentially, there's (AFAIK) no way of achieving the following result:
"Last1 First1/Last2 First2: BookTitle1.
idem.: BookTitle2."
where "idem.", and only "idem." is italicised.
Another issue is using "idem." in-line.
When citing multiple works by the same author under one citation, "idem." should also be used in-line after the first work. What I'm trying to achieve is this:
"Last1 (2011); idem. (2012)"
with "idem." italicised again, of course.
Am I missing some existing CSL functionality here, or is this a limitation of the current specification?

I don't think either of these are possible in CSL.
