   Co-authors-plus is a great plugin! Thanks for all the hard work.

   I would like to suggest one feature, a filter to the iterator. Currently I apply WP's 'the_author' filter, but any filter hook would be very convenient.

   Sounds reasonable :) Want to prepare a pull request for this on Github?

   My preference would be to apply a filter called 'the_coauthor', and then you can hook whatever you'd like onto that.

   Also, make sure your code actually executes (e.g. "$i-position" looks broken), and you can decrement with $i->position-- or similar.

   Lastly, if you could prepare an example use case when you submit your pull request so I can properly test, that'd be wonderful.
