I would simply send the book to my Kobo with a filename consisting of the title followed by the first author. My Kobo will read the metadata from the epub and populate the authors list in the database from there. At that point, I can search on any of the 26 authors and the book will be found. Since it is a live search, depending on the author name, it often does not take that many characters before the name pops up.

For what it's worth, the content.opf contains the following for title/series/author information:
