No, it gets generated on demand during output and then discarded. Probably
would be a much better idea to retain it, I suppose, or at least, have an
option to. And then have it show up in the entry view.
The XSLT probably might not be too hard. Check if the key is empty, then if
so call a template to generate it. The template would just concatenate the
author-title-year and return. Granted, XSLT is a rather complex beast...
