Perhaps some orange with it?

I started a currant lime loaf tonight for breakfast tomorrow. That got me thinking again about other flavor combinations that might be different and savory. For some reason I thought of orange, since I don't usually eat breads with orange. A quick search on google turned up some results like this one.

That got me thinking about orange chicken, which is a very popular chinese dish . In chinese, it means "old peal chicken." For the bread, I'm thinking of adapting the flavors a bit. Ginger, vinegar, garlic, shaoxing rice wine and orange are the dominant flavors in the dish. For the bread, I'm thinking of combining

Orange juice
ginger
shaoxing rice wine
teaspoon sugar
teaspon of vinegar
garlic

It sounds crazy enough to taste really good, or really bad. I won't know until I try it, but it should be interesting either way.
