isn't nice that calibre has the flexibility to allow you to create exactly what you're looking for. Maybe at some point Kovid will find the time to provide the option to show Title sort in the Title column but until then a custom column is an easy work around.
Reading your suggestion I doubted that it would function as I wanted (similar to title in all ways other than displaying articles of speech), but I did create a test database. While a custom column (derived from other columns with {title_sort} as my template) displays the correct info, it cannot be edited via the book view. Clicking on the cell opens the template editor window. It does not set the cursor in the cell's contents as would occur if you click in the normal title cell.

Just in case, did I create this column correctly? Perhaps I've missed something?

You're correct of course. But I didn't really want a file structure with a folder named "Bla Blubb_ The" as it is counter intuitive if a manual search is required. (Yes I know, I shouldn't be touching the file structure directly.)
