I’ve tried
[^Parent.Child]
but that’s only useful for the editor, since it doesn’t change anything for the reader.
Do you mean as a syntax extension that could also somehow be used in output formats?

No, @Crissov, I merely mean to ask whether the specification defines a way to add hierarchy to a bibliographic citation — they are rendered as mere HTML lists, after all, so I’m surprised that something like
1. ## **Body**
Placeholder text. [^Placeholder_1] [^Placeholder_2] [^Placeholder_3] [^Placeholder_4]
1. ## **Bibliography **
1. [^Placeholder_1]: Placeholder
1. [^Placeholder_2]: Placeholder
1. [^Placeholder_3]: Placeholder
1. [^Placeholder_4]: Placeholder
doesn’t appear to render whatsoever how one might expect in CommonMark-adherent applications, like VSCode:
Commonmark does not have support for bibliographic citations. That is why I asked about extensions. I have seen that caret syntax before, but without further research I do not remember which implementations are using that.

Thanks, @Crissov. I’ve been using what Implement `citations` extension · Issue #15 · jgm/commonmark-hs · GitHub describes. VSCode supports it by default, so I merely expected that it was part of CommonMark consequently, since adherence comes up so frequently in discussions on its GitHub. Apologies.
