Add the ability to set an author as afterword | Feature Requests

I recently had two books (well, really editions) that had an afterword with a different author, which then I couldn't properly tag. It would be great to have, next to the foreword option, also an afterword option.

Oliver Kamer The contributor update is coming very soon for all librarians, but it's live for admins. If you make reports for that specific edition and link the source, we have the ability to fix them up right now.
