--- Comment #16 from my real name <rolandocz at gmail.com> ---
The technique I used to clear all the problems was:

I created a dummy book in the database.
Then I inserted the dummy book entry after the end of my document and right
before the bibliography table.

(My bibliography was sorted according to type of document (article, book, www,
etc.) and then by the title of the document.)

To force a reset I edit the entry (right click on the text entry/reference, not
in the database) and change the type of document from "www document" to "book"
and the title from zzz to aaa, so that it's moved from the top to the bottom of
the bibliography table and then vice-versa, each time updating the table.
Seemingly, that forces the table to be rebuilt and clears the repeats and
updates to the changes made in the database.

That makes me think that all the functions necessary to get the bibliography
updated correctly are in place, and that those aren't being called. I don't
know what is the mess in the code, but should not be impossible to fix and the
feature should be kept and just improved.
