Comment (by MikeNGarrett):

 This looks really good. We'll have to replicate this for the other feed
 types once we get a final version.

 Here's another question: would you need to make another db query to get
 the last modified posts? You already have a list of posts, so instead of
 building an array of IDs you should be able to build an array of
 post_modified values and return the latest.

 I would only have 2 concerns if we went that direction:
 1. What happens when feeds are not sorted by latest?
 2. Should we be concerned about pagination?
