In R Markdown you can specify the output format of an .Rmd document to .md like so

```
---
output: github_document
bibliography: bib.bib
---
```
and generate a plain markdown document with bibliographic references. This is very useful for writing tutorials that include references and hosting them on Github (pages), for example.

When I run

`quarto render my_tutorial_with_references.qmd --to markdown` 

the references are not rendered (even though they are rendered when rendering to HTML). 

Would much appreciate support for this (or in case I'm missing something and this can already be achieved in some other way, fire at me!)

Many thanks - awesome project!
