 Replying to [comment:64 DrewAPicture]:
 > The addition of the `wp_dropdown_users_args` filter is a good start, but
 I don't see us necessarily solving this in 4.4. Moving back to future
 release.

 The new filter solves the immediate problem that site owners face. While a
 deep dive into the query behind the scenes could be warranted, I still
 don't see how having this filter is a bad thing at all, especially given
 that we already filter the HTML output inside the same function.
