Oh, well if you are using an application that simply shows the filename, then it will do just that. And filenames are a lousy way to describe something.
calibre does not offer the user control over filenames in the library. This is non-negotiable. You want to see "author - title" rather than "title - author"? That right there is a dealbreaker.
End of story.
As for calibre "killing" your language, it is required for cross-platform operation. calibre must work on WIndows, OSX, and linux -- and it is
Windows, the platform that you use, that does not have proper support for UTF-8.

And, AGAIN: please, read, I wrote 3× already: what can be done manually, can be done automatically, to. If Calibre want preserve illogical, nationality-insulting, racist, discriminative filename system, then it can make temporary file for reading.
As I know, Kovid is hindu. Did he forget about english imperialists, who killed people in India? Or does he like it? In any case: I do not like the killing of my language.
