There are records with many entries that can be linked to authorities, be it
secondary authors (7xx) or subjects (6xx)

As it is, when you use "Automatic authority link" the results list only
indicate the field number, so you see something like this.

 * 650 - More than one local match found. Possibly a duplicate authority!
 * 650 - More than one local match found. Possibly a duplicate authority!
 * 650 - More than one local match found. Possibly a duplicate authority!
 * 700 - No matching authority found.
 * 700 - No matching authority found.
 * 700 - No matching authority found.

To figure out which are the entries the results refer to you have to manually
check the fields in the record. I think this could improved by adding info
about the entries.

Something like this.

 * 650 - Rock music. - More than one local match found. Possibly a duplicate
authority!
 * 650 - Alternative rock music. - More than one local match found. Possibly a
duplicate authority!
 * 650 - Country music. - More than one local match found. Possibly a duplicate
authority!
 * 700 - Ikeda, Elaiza - No matching authority found.
 * 700 - Okada, Nana - No matching authority found.
 * 700 - Tsuchiya, Anna - No matching authority found.
