Backend: Add author names to the administrative issue table of contents
Describe the problem you would like to solve
Since many editors communicate over the submissions mostly with the name of the main contributor, it would be a good improvement to display the names of all contributors of a submission either.
In the backend under “issues > issue X > edit” only the titles of all assigned submissions appear in the grid view listing.
Describe the solution you’d like
In the table (grid view listing) of all assigned submission for a specific issue (“issues > issue X > edit”) prefix the submission’s titel with all contributor names (joined with a comma), followed by a colon and space, e.g.:
“[contrib name 1], [contrib name 2]: Submission title”

I tried to solve this by writing a plugin, but I found no hook or any other structure, that could be reached with a plugin. If I missed something, please let me know!
