Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
As a repository manager, my expectation is that any edit to the metadata page -- title, abstract, authors -- is saved when I click "Save Authors". Currently, updates to the author list are only saved when the manager clicks "Save Authors".

Describe the solution you'd like
When "Save Metadata" is clicked, any edits to the preprint metadata, including author data updates, should save.

Hi @alainna I can confirm due to a limitation in Django Formsets this will not be possible. I will however be splitting the edit metadata and edit author pages into two different pages.
