16645	Inline edit defaults author to current user	firebird75		"This one looks a bit like ticket #13982

Here is what happens :
- I have created a custom post type that doesn't support the 'author' when registering it (with register_post_type)
- I am doing an inline edit of a custom post authored by another user
- the custom post author defaults to current user (ie the one who is performing the inline edit instead of the one who authored it)

This behavior is different from what you see with post type of post where inline edit wouldn't change the post author.

To debug it further, I have enabled the 'author' during the custom post type registration and the problem isn't there anymore in that case. So it is probably linked to the fact that 'author' wasn't entered in the supports array entry during the custom post type registration.

I am not sure if this is a bug or expected behavior but it would be nice to be able to have a common behavior accross post types weither 'author' is supported or not."	defect (bug)	new	normal	Awaiting Review	Quick/Bulk Edit	3.1	normal		has-patch	autremonde75@… knut@…
