Allow people to change the post/page author

From a user:

I can’t change the author of who is posting from the app. Might be something nice to add to the settings if it is a multiple user blog.

Bump. Request from another user:

Adding my voice to those asking for this. Seems like a perfect addition to the mobile app for groups of people who are travelling with mobile devices only, and using a shared blog to document their travels.

For example:

3 people with separate accounts working on shared posts on a single blog, who want to post as a single user. This is easily done on wp-admin/Calypso by changing the author of the post, but currently impossible to do on Mobile app alone. The workaround is to either log out and in of accounts (which is an extra step or few if you have 2fa enabled), or to log in to the web version in Safari and change the author before publishing that way. It would be great if author switching was enabled in the app to avoid this.
