Okay, I'll make the counter global with initialisation at the beginning of the citation command.
The test suite is something to start with, I'll use it. Random thought: testing typesetting is tricky, but I think that the output of
\loggingoutput
might be something to start with. Given the same settings the boxes TeX make should remain the same. Plus, with pdfTeX and LuaTeX it is possible to have reproducible PDFs (https://tex.stackexchange.com/q/440270/134574), so it might be used as well. I'll learn how to usel3build
to do something about that.I think that sorting the multicites will be awkward, but it can be done. However I believe that it should not be activated by
sortcites
. I think that a new option (a good name would beIKnowThatThisIsn'tThePurposeOfMulticitesButI'llDoThisAnyway
;-) should be added to make that work. Certainly possible, given an enough amount of code :)I'm working on it. Right now I'm trying to understand how the sorting algorithm works to start messing around with it. As soon as I have something new I send you.
