Comment:

 I really like this idea. It makes sense to export all of the data based on
 the selected parameters.

 It may make more sense to reuse the {{{$post_ids}}} array so that the
 query for distinct post authors mirrors the results from the main posts
 query. Restricting it to post_type could cause the same issue with extra
 authors for some taxonomies, etc...

 The updated patch attached uses the {{{$post_ids}}} array instead.
