Yes indeed, Helen and I have discussed this and followed discussion on
RDA-L and I'm still not sure what to think. There seems to be a clear
instruction that editors don't get considered as "creators" except with
compilations of data like bibliographies, but then as Helen says in
practice it isn't as clear-cut. And I'm still a bit unclear as to the
difference in use for "editor" and "editor of compilation" so not sure what
is the correct relationship designator to use.

I'm feeling the need for my lunch!
