I know I'm being a PITA, but I don't understand why you don't seem to think this is a big deal. I've been a computer programmer and data managment consultant for 34 years. One of the most basic of design concepts is that the sort order of a column of data matches the data display. If The column displays last-name, first-name it should sort on last-name, first-name. To make it worse, a name like Cooper, James Fenimore sorts with the Fs. This is a no-brainer. This alone is making me not want to use Calibre. It's just too frustrating.
Sorry for venting, but I've spent hours upon hours just trying to load my files into the Calibre library and get a simple display by author.
