## # author:

Lists one or more authors for a source file.

  * Should typically just be a name `Susan Examplary`

  * Or a comma-separated list of authors.

URLs or email addresses are best listed behind author names instead:

    # author: Susan (http://example.org/), Miriam <miri@example.org>

Having separate `author-url:` and `author-email:` fields does not really
help anywhere. Typically authorship is just shown once during plugin
installation. And having a mini parser/renderer there is just less effort
than maintaining two PMD fields.

(This is also advised because of Wordpress´ abhorrent "Author URI:" field
→ asking for an "URI:" but crapping out on urn:, data:, mailto: values.)
