+1

not to mention, this is the "least pain" method 

the database supports only one author per article

honest-to-goodness multiple authors per article requires 
a *substantial* database change, as well as tearing the code apart

so, primary author is the best way, in my opinion

secondary or additional or co-authors can be acknowledged
in the body of the article, maybe in an h4 or something

aard's gonna shoot me, 'cause he wants an h2 and an h3
in betwixt the article h1 and any subsequent h4, but i still
say that's crap, you don't have to have the intermediate
levels...  it'll even validate...

... but then, i'm a hacker, not a structure maven...
