chaining of modifiers does not work (in all cases?) #3648

@lpirl

Description

@lpirl

JabRef version 4.1 on Debian buster/sid

Steps to reproduce:

  1. chain modifiers for the BibTeX key generator as described in the docs
  2. have a BibTex file where both modifiers would have an effect
  3. observe that only the last modifier will be applied
Details

Despite the configured pattern [auth:(_):lower][veryshorttitle:lower:(_)] , the example BibTex:

@Article{Interesting,
  title     = {The Interesting Title},
}

leads to the BibTex key as seen above.

Expected key (and BibTex, again):

@Article{_interesting,
  title     = {The Interesting Title},
}

Thanks for this powerful piece of FLOSS!
