Make ?poster= work for OpenID accounts.

Title:
Make ?poster= work for OpenID accounts.

Area:
Communities

Summary:
With community importing on the way, the ability to search communities by poster should be extended to work for OpenID accounts as well.

Description:
Currently, you can search communities by poster with the URL format http://foo.dreamwidth.org?poster=bar (so, for example, http://dw-suggestions.dreamwidth.org?poster=denise). This doesn't work for OpenID accounts, as I found when testing it out in scans_daily, one of the few communities that has already had entries imported. The URL format http://foo.dreamwidth.org?poster=bar.livejournal.com (or .insanejournal.com, etc.) should also work for searching communities.

Poll #8902 Make ?poster= work for OpenID accounts.
Open to: Registered Users, detailed results viewable to: All, participants: 86

This should be made to work with either the username.livejournal.com or ext_000 format.
