[typo] Multiple users

[Justin Palmer]

Gonna chime in here.

I find multi-blog support for the core Typo project to be feature bloat 
myself.  9.5 times out of 10 there will be 1 blogger or one blog with 
many bloggers blogging on the same
blog (say that 5 times fast!).  Don't you think the multi-blog feature 
would only be useful to a small minority of our users and not the 95% 
majority?

Cheers,
  -Justin
