Just a short note regarding:

> If automated clicking on the entry file link would open the crossref-pdf at the required page: BRILLIANT.

I tried this in another context an unfortunately this is not possible. The only way to achieve this is to open the file in a web browser - but this is not appropriate for a Desktop application as JabRef.
