Yep. I opened a feature request for that one myself a while back.
Just need to get around to implementing it. I have in mind to have
it pick up the Legalnotice contents also.

It's deliberate in that the current code is only capable of
retrieving *info content from the refentry itself or from its
direct parent. I suppose what I'll need to have it do in addition
to that is just fall back to walking up through the whole tree
to see if it can find an ancestor element with author content.

I opened a feature request for that one too a while back.

> I should add one in the referenceinfo too perhaps?

For now, yeah. I'll get ancestor support added some time before
the next official release.
