I don't have an answer. I don't think there is a simple method. Note that you might only get contributor handles and you could resolve them in batches. You can check if contributors have a supporting QueryModel.ROOT and try if that allows to query and search by name.
Thanks Ralph, that's pretty much what I suspected. To me this an obvious thing to want to do - my organisation, and I'm sure many others, have codified userIDs so if that's not provided, being able to search on name, as you can through an RTC client, is crucial. This is also why I was wondering if there's an internal method - we have to resort to internal for certain other common admin functions ....
I'll try your suggestion though I confess I'm not optimistic!
