I have a question concerning how author sort is handled. Is it possible to have the author folders on disk sort Surname, FirstName i.e.

G:\Calibre\Weber, David

rather than:

G:\Calibre\David Weber

I prefer that to wading through 10 Davids to get to the right folder. Also if I make a Preferences change to set it up like that is it possible to have it rename all the existing folders, or will it just work on new folders created after the change?

I haven't found an obvious way to do this in the prefs, will it require a Regex change?
