Comment (by coreymckrill):

 > I'm not sure about random presentation of the initial set. I like the
 potential for serendipity, but I suspect predictability will work better
 for people, especially if alphabetical presentation is the norm. I doubt
 users will realise that the default presentation changes above X
 attendees.

 Good point. So it would be better for alphabetical to be the default. And,
 I do think it would be nice to have an option where it's not always just
 the "A" names above the fold.

 > But I suspect the searches which would be more valuable at large scale
 are more vague ones: 'I wonder who's attending from that
 city/state/country? or that company?' Of course, that's at least as much
 about the data we capture, and the way we store it, as it is about how we
 present it.

 Unless we add a lot of complexity for the person setting up the page via
 additional shortcode attributes, I suspect the search will just be for
 whatever content is visible in each attendee list item. The shortcode does
 allow that info to be customized.
