How to not reference a biblioentry

I understand that a biblio set can be generated like this:

<biblioentry>
  <abbrev>Walsh97</abbrev>
. . .

This would create something like the folllowing:
[Walsh97] XML: Principles, Tools, and Techniques. & Associates, Inc..
1085-2301. Dan Connolly. "A Guide to XML". Norman Walsh. Copyright C
1997 ArborText, Inc.. 97-108.


On a related note. I have a need to write biblioentries that do not include the [abbrev] text. However, the XSLT stylesheets just stick in an empty []. Is there any chance to get this fixed so that the brackets are only included if the abbrev is present? Acccording to the DTD, abbrev is optional.
