Well, nested, not recursive, but either way: Would that be bad? I'm not 
wedded to any one way of doing this, and since they're likely to be 
auto-generated anyway, including the expanded reference in the 
referencegroup is unlikely to cause a problem. All I'm really interested 
in is the BCP and STD entries in the bibxml, whatever they actually 
contain.
