      We have a way to indicate who were the founding (original) members of a group, but we don't have a way to specify who was the founder of the group (the person who specifically decided to found a group and auditioned for members, etc). There are at least two cases where this is very common, and where the founder is often not a member of the group as such: boy/girl bands (where the founder is often a producer or executive), and classical ensembles and orchestras (where the founder is often a conductor or composer). We should add a relationship to allow linking such people to the groups.

      It might make sense to also extend this relationship to labels, for bands founded by a label.

      We might also want to rename "founding member" to "original member" to avoid confusion.
