Intention: Edit an existing citation. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Select an existing citation (one using a citation template). 2. Press the return key to open it. 3. That's odd, I'm in the Reference dialog. Exit. 4. Re-select the citation. 5. Double-click to open it. 6. That's odd, I'm in the Reference dialog. Exit. 7. Re-select the citation. 8. Click the little cite-web icon. That opens the citation tool's simplified dialog. This happens in both Safari and Firefox, so presumably everywhere. Reproducible: Always
Once you're inside the Reference dialog, if you double-click the citation template, then it takes you to the Citation tool (rather than to the generic template tool). I don't know if that's intentional, but it's not obviously wrong.
In talking with Trevor this is going to take quite some time to fix, sadly.

As the citation experience overall has recently improved in leaps and bounds this is one of those issues that sticks out -- any chance we can chop it down soon?

It's a non-trivial problem. We have some ideas for how to do this, but I need Trevor's brain, and he's been sick all week :(
