[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Duplicate entry in authors.tt2 (is this bug 958954?)

[Dan Scott]

It sounds like there are a few issues here, let me see if I can separate
them out:

a) bug: relator term $e is not being recognized as the relator, but is
included in the text display along with parenthetical notation for the
default relationship (e.g. 700 = (added author))
b) bug: multiple $4 relator codes are not displayed properly, where
"properly" might mean something like "$700 $a White, Jack $4 cre $4 dir"
should be displayed as "White, Jack (creator, director)"
c) bug: the default relationship of "added author" for 7xx fields when no
relator code or term is specified needs to reflect the underlying item type
(e.g. for a musical recording, should display something like "Added artist")
d) discussion issue: when both $e relator terms and $4 relator codes are
included in the same field, it's not clear what to display
e) (unknown if this is an issue, but "probably") $e relator terms and $4
relator codes may or may not be indexed as expected

For my part on (d), I'm still firmly of the belief that $4 relator code
should take precedence; it's value can easily be translated in the display
(and is, for French) and can be used for linked data (like pointing to
http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/dtc), whereas the $e relator terms
are effectively uncontrolled text fields that make both translation and
linked data much, much more difficult.
