Ah yes, so would you say 'performer', 'creator' and 'composer' are roles 
and not different to being a contributor? It would be useful to have a 
more blanket term for instances where one person has multiple roles of 
that kind. I know you had a problem with it but if the role 'artist' is 
vague in so far as 'performer', 'composer' etc.. are concerned then 
perhaps it would be useful for exactly that reason. What do you think?
