Added to the list.

Characters would be easier to build, but suffers from displaying partial author names. @Purple Lady: would that solve the problem?
Hmmmm: perhaps the best is a number of characters that controls the number of authors. If adding an author causes the count to go over the limit, an ellipsis instead of that author is added. Of course, the first author must be permitted even if the length exceeds the count.
