Thanks for your helpful response, Ray!
What happens if two authority sources offer different labels for a
person? For example, in the following example, LCNAF refers to a
person as "Allen, Paula Gunn", while wikidata refers to her as "Paula
Gunn Allen, Native American writer". However, it's impossible to tell
which name authority provided which label.
Is there a cool way to do this? Or have BIBFRAME designers decided
that this it is not important to preserve these data? Granted, I
can't necessarily think of a specific use case for recording the
providers of specific authorized labels, but it just seems like
something that'd be nice to have (and something that MARC includes in
the second indicator or $2 of many fields, such as the 600 field).

In 2.0 the concept of a principal is discarded. Instead, you can supply multiple agents within a single contribution. (The obvious question is, if you supply two agents for, let’s say author, how do you know whether there are two authors or if they are just different authorities for the same author. The answer is, if there are two authors, supply separate contributions.)
