Sorry for being a bit slow at looking at this - the patch looks nice
and the current behaviour should definitely be improved.
If I read the new logic correctly, if you have a single author in the
global prefs file, it'll be overwritten if 'alwaysAsk' is true and you
choose "Other". But if you have multiple authors the global prefs file
will never be changed whatever 'alwaysAsk' is set to.
Is that intentional? It feels a bit confusing, but I'm not sure I have
a better alternative. One option might be to always append a new author
no matter how many are there already.
