Indeed, the DocBook Technical Committee strives to accomodate any mix of
authors and author groups, because we observe such variety in the field.
You can assign role attributes as needed to differentiate them, and
customize the stylesheet to format them as needed.

I have a question about the <author> element. It can occur as a
daughter of a bunch of elements, but there are two parents where its
usage seems a bit unclear to me: <info> and <authorgroup>. The
intent is clear: <author> should appear under <authorgroup> "when a
document has multiple authors or collabarators"
[...]
What is the intent if there's an <author> under both paths?
Maybe my memory is playing me false, but I *thought* (long back in the
DTD-only days), the *info element types used (author+|authorgroup).
I don't know the intent, but I can see that someone *might* want to
express A as the principal author, and B+C+D as a group of co-authors
(genuinely co-authors, not collaborators).
