For a textbook/reference book that has multiple authors, I certainly dont recommend splitting it up (as a matter of fact I am a co-author of one such book on Quantum Computing, and I would certainly not want people to split up the book). But what's the problem with just listing all the authors in the authors field, in order of significance? And adding a note in the comments field (or a dedicated custom column you create) about any special role any of the authors might have had?
