You should be able to see all books by author A if you put X. YZ (ed) & (or A & B .. in the authors field.
As in, having authors and editors in one field.

The only "disadvantage" I can think of would be that editors will be treated as authors. If you only want a list of editors you then will have to search for (ed) I think.

However I think it is a lot of work to add every author that contrbuted to a certain anthology.
