Comment:

 I see what you're saying and I like the idea. I'm just curious how we'll
 go about displaying the information though. From what I've read, it seems
 as if this proposal is to redirect users to the author archive of the only
 poster on the site and when there is more than one author (multi author
 site [>= 2]), show a list of them?

 My only concern is how we go about showing the list of multiple authors. I
 think that would require additionally templates and styling for theme
 developers etc. It's a good idea though. Perhaps we could work on, at
 least in the first instance; just looking forward to implement the single
 author redirect?

 Anybody else have any thoughts on this approach?
