Hi Tibor!

Perfectly agree with using 700 in display if no 100 exists due to an error. 
Also, something like bibcheck should complain about the record. Note that in 
our websubmit we enforce proper 100/700. But of course from bibedit (only 
available to staff) one could break it.

Note, however, that "first by line ordering" in the record might not be 
correct. I did not yet find which process in invenio but there is at least one 
who happily mixes lines up. As Marc is ignorant about line ordering (only those 
orderly librarians like to keep everything nice an tidy) one has to take $b 
into account here. Thus, probably missing $b should also rise some error in 
bibcheck.

Last but not lest: 110 and friends have the same first/second concept as 
100/700. So they should be included in the checks.

Note from our experience that we have only a few papers of the latter kind. Its 
common in grey literature, however (E.g. Scientific Report of...) Most users, 
however, are not comfortable with this distinction, so to our experiences to 
get this right is left to a skilled cataloguer.

Yes, this use case is very important; however in case 100 is missing
because of some mistake, then the first author from 700 would "take its
role" until the problem is spotted by the record checked and fixed by
the cataloguer.  Seems OK to me; otherwise there would be no "first
author" at all, only "additional authors", which is illogical.

(And if there is indeed no first author, then people should be probably
using "corporate author" concept, i.e. 110 and such.)
