I agree with Mary Larsgaard that these three should be kept separate.
I am particularly persuaded of this when I think of "editor." (or
for those of you across the pond, "editor".)
Author, editor, publisher are different dimensions; editor is one
case of an uncontrollably large number of roles (so Otheragent
is okay by me but I wouldn't want to lose it). I don't think anything
is made any easier by merging any two of the three, much less
by merging all three.
