I just downloaded the last nightly, and ... to my great joy the new
addition to the autogeneration syntax is already working!
Thank you so very much, Christiaan, for finding a solution and immediately
implementing it.

I may have a better solution. Add the number at the end of the metal optional
argument,
%a[,][etal1]20
The problem would be when someone would have used numbers art the end of "et
al." itself, but I think that won’t happen.

Yeah, I thought about that.
But might it not be feasible to add it as an additional option?
For example, I could think of a set of optional third (or, for %A%P, fourth)
brackets with a number, with the meaning
"max number of authors if etal is present"
*%a[,][etal][1]20*
*%A[,][,][etal][1]20*
I am sorry, we can not support this. It would not be backwards compatible,
current formats would not automagically conform themselves.

Dear all,
