Indeed. I have raised this issue with several publishers, though
I didn't manage to interest Nature in publishing it as a letter.
As the letter from Frank Seeber points out, this is in particular
problematic for the citation of methods papers. To this I would
add citation of programs and databases.

Any solution to the problem of dropped citations must be solved
jointly by the journals and by the abstracting services (ISI, PubMed).

I encourage you all to raise this issue whenever you submit a
paper for publication that has suppplementary material.
