Description
1. Ask to create a new publication and add an author
2. Type something into author search
3. Select an author in results list
4. Click the "No" button -- observe that the text fields are cleared (correctly)
5. Click the "Yes" button
Now the text fields are still empty, and are also un-editable, but the author you selected in the search results earlier is still selected. (Does that mean the author will be used when I submit the form, or not?)
Really at step 4 the selection also needs to be cleared from the author search results. Or else at step 5 the text fields should be re-filled from the selection, but I think the former is probably more sensible.

It turns out that the author that had been selected does not get used when the form is submitted, which means this is essentially a cosmetic issue -- it's confusing but it doesn't lead to significantly wrong results as far as I can tell.
