Correct.

2) If I add Jr without a comma, eg Sam Merwin Jr, then the Author sort becomes Merwin, Sam Jr, rather than the Merwin Jr, Sam that I would like. To get this format I have to manually change the Author sort entry in Manage authors. I have to do this for all names with the Jr suffix. Although do-able without exorbitant effort it would be nice if I could set up this Author sort format, ie LastName Jr, FirstName as the default. Is this possible?

I don't believe it is. Manage Authors really is the only way to deal with an author sort value that breaks calibre's expectations like that.
