 Suggest import.html contain an optional default author entry box (numeric
 or alpha lookup).  The entry here would become the default author if a
 valid post_author is not found in the imported posts.  This default author
 would apply to ''all'' posts that are part of the import.

 To be determined is if this default author should override valid author
 data - I would think it would.

 An advanced feature would be to allow both a number author_ID or the
 friendly string-based author name to be entered and import.php would try
 to determine if the friendly name is unique.  If not present a list of
 friendly names along with their blogs and allow the user to select the
 specific author.
