Support Author By metadata

Peakd has a really nice feature where you can specify an author of a post for group and community accounts.

Here you can see this post on @poshbot was authored by @themarkymark.

This feature is available under Advanced Settings when creating a post.

The only change is it adds a field to the json_metadata for "author"..

It would also require having a label to display when a post has author metadata similar to how Peakd does it as seen here:

Peakd generally adds features in a way that they can be adopted by other front ends. I think this is a perfect example of one of them that is easy to implement and offers some value.

Other features I think that would also be a benefit to have available on multiple front ends and has already been implemented on Peakd in a way that can be easily supported by other front ends by adjusting and reading json_metadata.

• Cross posts
• Post Countdown timer
• Select Cover image
• Short description

These are all great features that all front ends can implement in a standardized way and offer a better user experience. They are far less useful if only one front end supports it (I tend to avoid using features that have limited support).
