Did the case that would work solve your problem (the MobiPocket reader case)?

Oh, the major problem I saw were circular references...

Create a custom colum "new_title"

{author} - {title}

and then use {#new_title} for your {title}...
Arrgh. I took care of mutual recursion when displaying fields on the GUI, but I forgot to do it in save-to-disk. Fixed now.

Did you have the offending field displayed on the library view? And if so, didn't it display RECURSIVE_COMPOSITE_FIELD or some such in the table? I bet it did, and then you went ahead and used it anyway, just to see what would happen.
