instead of default
author:"=Cory Doctorow"
OK.
I finally got motivated enough to roll up my sleeves and create my personal version of Calibre with the desired functionality.

I have installed development version of Calibre.
I have found the source for "Find similar books" functionality and I added another option - find similar books where the author has same surname as selected book.

I should have done that much sooner.
It will speed up the process of my cleaning up
