would it be possible, when extracting the annotation with zotfile, to allow for interactively creating the "related" link to author (year), if author (year) exists in the zotero library?

Occasionally, zotfile will not rename and move a pdf I attache, once in about every 20 cases. I just tried one with "Attach stored copy of file", and it did not move it, but it did rename it (and thus

I've just downloaded and installed ZotDroid on my phone, and have successfully synced my Zotero library. However, I use Zotfile to store my PDF attachments on Sync cloud storage.
