FH should be enhanced to provide a facility to "Work With Data" for the Author item on Source Records. This facility should be analogous to that for Places and Addresses and should (as a minimum) include the ability to Edit, Replace with..., and List Records and Where Used. In addition, the Property Box for a Source Record should bring up a data entry assistant that gives the option of using an existing Author.
Justification: The majority of source records (at least for "splitters") have Authors that repeat to possibly a large extent, e.g. a parish church. The facility would give the ability to ensure consistency in the forms used (e.g. is it "Saint" in full, "St." or "St" for the church?)
