(I was going to create a new bug, after some comments on today's Collection's
bug triage on IRC - where bug 28064 was mentioned - but since part of the
problem is already mentioned here, I'll copy my comment bellow)

Per
[[Wikipedia:Village_pump_(technical)/Archive_91#Augmenting_article_history]]
MediaWiki needs to provide some way to store the original authors of a content
which is being imported to a wikipage from other places.

The topic on village pump discuss the details and provides several examples of
the current situation.

This feature is needed for example to let automated tools to get the *full*
list of authors of a wikipage and avoid licensing problems (such as incomplete
attribution on books created by [[Special:Book]], from
[[mw:Extension:Collection]] - see bug 28064)

See also [[mw:Files_and_licenses_concept]], which discuss something roughly
similar, but focused on images and other files, and not only on its authors but
also on associated licenses.
