I could see value in recording the original author and allowing that to be replaced with the current maintainer (maybe past maintainers as well) to prevent a long list of inactive users appearing in the infobox. Inactive maintainers may also appreciate still receiving credit for their work without still getting emails, talk page pings, etc.
