Feature:90134 Link changes to a publication to its coverart title record OPEN As the covertart title record is invisible on publication views it would be ideal if changes to the publication title and/or date were also reflected in its covertart title record.

Though merging coverart records is rare I suspect the code should also check for other linked publications and if the publication title, date, or cover artist’s name is changed that instead of updating the title record to instead create a new one and to link to that.

Finally, when auto-creating and auto-updating covertart records would it be safe to check if there is a pseudonym registered for that cover artist and to automatically create a parent title record for the canonical name and/or to also update the parent record?
