And like eschwartz pointed out, it opens up a whole new bag of 'oh sh...ts!' so I think I'll stick with Win7 typeahead search.

Btw. nice 'trick' with the commandline options.
The LN, FN would make it stored as LN, FN, so does that mean this was all a dream???

I'm glad you liked my trick, are you using it?

You don't even have to have the Explorer opened to Calibre Library, it's just as fast as the search step, and it will display, for example,
Code:
schwartze@ltsp22:~$ calibredb list -s 'authors:"=J. K. Rowling" '
id   title                                     authors       
14   Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone     J. K. Rowling 
29   Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets   J. K. Rowling 
30   Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban  J. K. Rowling 
31   Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix J. K. Rowling 
32   Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince    J. K. Rowling 
39   Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows      J. K. Rowling 
43   Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire       J. K. Rowling 
452  Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them   J. K. Rowling 
453  Quidditch Through the Ages                J. K. Rowling 
454  The Tales of Beedle the Bard              J. K. Rowling
all in one step (no opening explorer, going to Calibre Library, searching author, then opening the folder) and gives you room to do all kinds of fun calibre searches on the spot.
