Comment (by redsweater):

 markoheijnen -  I understand that the wp.* methods are preferred, but as
 long as the older methods are present I assume there is not opposition to
 having them behave correctly?

 For what it's worth, as far as I can tell even WordPress's official iOS
 app still uses metaWeblog.editPost. It doesn't look like it currently
 supports changing the author of a post but for example, if it tried to add
 that feature without updating to use wp.editPost, it would run into this
 failure.
