Name-part formatting #126

Part of #66, but not exclusive to it. I don't fully understand the requirements here in a general way, but will need to return to it later.

In the piece of code below, I want to have a prefix (space) in front of “Firstname” (or suffix with “Lastname”) but it does not render. Formatting such as underline renders perfectly. The journal requires to add a space between “family” and “given” in Japanese.

And this related one raises a bigger issue; non-standard contributor roles, and input extensibility in general.
