Workaround for label-style citation
As the support for label-style citations seems to be fixed zotero code, I want to misuse the "extra" (might be called something else in EN) to store a self-compiled label for later use in a custom style.
First: Is the label citation-format more flexible than I'm aware of?
Second: How can I iterate over all elements and edit the extra field? I opened the sqlite file, but I look massive, hence I want to use the plugin method instead. Can you point me in a direction?

2.) the recommended method would be to use the JavaScript API: http://www.zotero.org/support/dev/client_coding/javascript_api#examplebatch_editing
batch editing is planned, but not currently available (and would likely not help you in this case anyway, since you will need actual scripting to create the labels, I assume).
