bibliography entries and formatting

I'd appreciate a quick answer on l10n-related aspect of bibliography index (not involving exhaustive source digging):

The default set of bib entries types (Article, Book etc.), with their default formattings -- is it programmed in or, possibly, put as a xml-form somewhere in a system template file?

The built-in bib processing and formatting does not really fit in well with the local, well-established requirements for bib (GOST 7, as a matter of fact); involves too much of extra work. And yes, I know of Zotero (and a few of other similar packages), and those do not really address my issue.

I don't know much about bibliography, but I think your point seems relevant.
So I'd like to suggest you to put it on bugzilla(https://bugs.freedesktop.org/)
as a feature enhancement request.
