We could add our own contact field, besides the human-readable information in the metadata, readme, main document etc.
It would allow to cover some specific aspects of research publications, research software, and data:
use ORCID-URL instead of Email (Emails change with people changing institutes, happens regularly in academia), even instead of person name
add an expiration date for contacts, effectively "this is how long my contract/the project is running and that is how long I expect to be able to answer your questions on this piece of research", or even "this is how long I expect to be interested in this topic"
could even add support pricing or expected answering time
