I haven't read through this thread, but one useful feature for this problem is in Preferences->Output options->MOBI Output. Set it to use author_sort as author, then when you send books to the Kindle, calibre will automatically set the author in the sent book to the value of the author sort field in calibre. This allows you to have correct author values in calibre and still sort by lastname, firstname on the Kindle.
