Display "Translator" in Zotero "Creator" column if no other?
This should be an easy fix, and would help in the unusual case that there is a work with a translator only, so that the "Creator" column is not blank. (Similarly the Creator column could default to any other type of creator if no author/editor/etc. is listed. No harm in that, right?)
(I realize that in principle there should never be only a translator, but if the original author is unknown, for example, this could come up. I happened to have an old book from the 1500s where the original source was not stated, but I did not want to call the translator an "author", even though that's the only way to make the name appear in the creator column.)

adamsmithLots of citation styles have substitute --> editor --> translator, so this would make sense systematically, too.
