I am not sure that there is a standard - it is all down to personal preference.

The behaviour you describe is the calibre out-of-the-box setting so I suspect most people stick with it (I know I do) and seems to correspond to the approach used by the online metadata sources I use. There are tweaks available for those who want a different relationship between the author and author_sort fields.
