Perhaps that can be used as author-only?

That would be:
[cite: @doe17] => (Doe 2017) [or a footnote, of course.)
[cite: -@doe17] => (2017)
[citet: @doe17] => Doe (2017)
[citet: -@doe17] => Doe

So we have like two basic citation types: One that is part of the narrative, 
one where the citation is set off from the main text. Both citations can be 
modified with a minus prefix. In one case this leads to "suppress author", in 
the other case this means "author only". (Using the same prefix for two 
different things can be considered problematic.)

Best,
