Be aware that you cannot get calibre to use author_sort = LN, FN to display author names in LN, FN order within the book display area. While it will sort the names correctly, it will not swap the order in which the names are displayed.
So...
authors=Abe Johnson
author_sort=Johnson, Abe
What is displayed?
Abe Johnson
Where is it placed within the sort?
Under J
How do you get calibre to display Johnson, Abe?
You don't. Unless you're willing to create a custom column, with custom programming, which computes the necessary changes and displays the list accordingly. But as I understand things you're going to take a pretty big hit in response time in order to do so (with CPU speed & memory capacity, along with number of books in the database, being the main bottlenecks).
