 * version:  3.8.1 => 3.0
 * type:  enhancement => defect (bug)


Comment:

 `user_levels` was deprecated in 3.0, adjusting version to match. I'm
 marking this as a bug because it causes issues in cases where a custom
 role is defined. `who => authors` should be expected to find anyone with
 `edit_posts` caps.
