I really don't want to, for a number of reasons. Most notably because I
don't want to mix things up with the sign-off, because authorship and
sign-off are really separate things (sign-offs accumulate, authorship
stays), but also because it's not entirely unambiguous to parse these
things. With the "first line only" rule, it ends up being pretty clear
what's going on when the script suddenly ate one line..
