They are also very open that this is an early beta, so I'm sure things are still subject to change. But getting the handles right as soon as possible should probably be a priority.
I'm not sure what would be best with regards to the different journalists. I guess people often want to follow topics or sites rather than individual authours. I guess each post could be posted to a main site and then automatically boosted by relevant sub-users such as individual journalists and specific topics.
Ghost has a clear path for this. I'm keeping a close eye, pretty respectable work for such a big player. Excited to integrate this on a friend's website soon, self-hosted version.
