I'm dreaming of a legal + technical alliance to contain the Elsevier infection & ultimately break it's strangehold. Technologists build push-button systems for handling publishing & editorial workflows, appropriately shielded from threats by lawyers.

I've never used Mendeley but one way to lock-in along systems like this is to use a non-standard URI for file attachments; metadata goes into zotero, but no links to your pdfs. (Bibtex does not have a standard identifier for reference files for this, and there's no common one.)
