Perhaps a trait for HasAuthor, HasFeaturedImage, HasAttachment etc.

An issue with this is the developer may create an extending model which would then return the incorrect model. I.e.

Director model extends User model.

Movie::author() method return an instance of User not Director.

The developer would be required to override the traits to change the subclass returned.

Is this solved by PHP8.1 #[\ReturnTypeWillChange]?
