 "The approach is significantly less attractive when HTML is authored manually and when links in general are concerned."

 Comparated with the data- approach, I agree that it is definitely more verbose. Not sure about how to quantify "significantly less attractive" :) Ideally, we should focus on interfaces handling this work instead of being concerned about which type of web-developers are not going to find this attractive for "hand-coding".

 "Also, the approach reduces the degree of freedom regarding citation style: semantics can only be provided for information that is directly shown to the user."

 That's a non-issue because a) if authored manually, desired citation style can be decided, b) if authored through a client UI, the editor for instance should take care of this work (via current or selected citation style).
