Hi, I've configured the ORCID Authority as described in 
https://wiki.lyrasis.org/display/DSDOC7x/ORCID+Authority. The lookup 
appears in the submission form just fine. And with 
https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-angular/pull/2653 it seems it'll be 
possible to add/change the values in the edit item. Is there some sort of 
configuration for the info the lookup shows (other than the first/last 
name)?

Also, if I'm not missing something obvious, it seems rather difficult to 
actually get the ORCID/ID (in order to display it or expose in OAI-PMH). 
When I have a row from the metadatavalue table, the authority column is a 
random UUID (used as id in the Solr authority cache), not the ORCID. Is 
there any mechanism to get the ORCID? I've seen 
https://github.com/atmire/RIOXX53/blob/master/dspace/modules/additions/src/main/java/org/dspace/xoai/util/ItemUtils.java#L152
 
which, I guess, could be used in v7/v8 OAI-PMH as well. But I'm unsure if 
there's anything for the frontend (or the REST API).

Is there a tendency to move these sorts of things into configurable 
entities? From https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/issues/9086 it seems that 
one would need to play with the virtual metadata to add/map the ORCID. That 
seems a bit simpler (less places to modify) compared to resolving the 
authority key via the Solr authority cache in all the right places.

Additionally, does either approach make it easier to search for works using 
the ORCID?

Thanks for any inputs.
Best Regards,
Ondřej
