 Replying to [comment:3 scribu]:
 > Given that when you remove a user from a blog, you're asked what to do
 with their posts, I'm not sure we should try to fix this.

 Just a couple of questions:

 * Do posts from other sites ''also'' show on said author archives?

 * If a user is a member of multiple sites and you reassign their posts,
 what is the current behavior? Do they get reassigned to a single user and
 a single site?

 Assuming posts should remain exclusive to sites, shouldn't we focus on
 maintaining that exclusivity when posts are reassigned? That may be enough
 for a new ticket depending on the current behavior.

 Regardless, if I have multiple sites in MU, I don't necessarily want users
 from one site showing on other sites' author archives.
