 > Not sure I see why get_posts_by_author_sql() needs to change at all,
 either. The sanitization/preparation in get_posts_by_author_sql() looks
 wrong. A unit test would catch this. (Needs unit tests.) The other
 instance of $post_type_where has similar issues.

 If not adding support for multiple post types, I think you're right in
 that get_posts_by_author_sql() doesn't need changed at all.

 I'd disagree about is_multi_author() though. For sites that use multiple
 public post types, it would be expected for is_multi_author() to properly
 detect when there are multiple authors on the site.
