Author Selector

This component allows an administrator with sufficient privileges to edit the author of a post. Use it by wrapping the element that you will use to toggle the menu open/closed.

<AuthorSelector post={ post }>
    <span>by William Shakespeare</span>
</AuthorSelector>;

The component will retrieve site users and render the child span as a clickable element to expand the author-selector UX. If selecting other authors is not appropriate (i.e., only one available author, Users not loaded, or insufficient permission), it will simply display the span.
