Hi,
I would like to give my users the possibility to edit authors, while they shouldn't have any other administer permissions so that they don't change pub types, author types etc.
But as they enter authors, this is somehow user data and they should be able to edit them.

Would you consider a patch for a separate grant for editing/administering authors?

Sure I don't see why not.

OK, this has been committed to -dev (with a few minor changes). I call biblio_access with the "edit_author" argument, then users with either "administer biblio" or "edit biblio authors" can edit author information.

Sounds reasonable! Thanks!
