1. Author/Author sort:
Only using first authors does sound a bit strange to me, especially when you have a digital instead of physical library, and your app is smart enough to pick out all authors of each book.
You said that your motivation for this feature is to reduce the number of authors in the "Arrange by Author" list. But how much percentage reduction are we talking about?
You've talked about owning over 4000 digitlal books. How many unique authors are there? How many first authors are there? Is the percentage difference between these two numbers really large enough to be worth the trouble?
2. Book List View:
We'll consider this suggestion.
3. Unknown Series:
You see, for each book set selected, no matter how you arrange the BookMaster Library, you can see the same set of books. Removing "Unknown Series" will break this nice property.
Perhaps a better name than "Unknown Series" is needed, as many books don't belong to any series in the first place.
Any name suggestion from anyone?

Author/Author sort: I really like your Author field functions, especially the grpouping and that all authors are recognized. At the same time, to reduce the number of authors I would like a function so that only the first Authors are used, manig you can either show all authors differently in the Author Sort list or switch to a view which uses only the first author in the list
Book List View
I would like to show additonal Metadata Information in the book list view depending which view you are using, like show the set when you are in the all books view, or show the series name and number in the author view, or the author name
Unkown Series: Please get rid of the "Unknown Series" insert in the series view for books w/o any series information
Thanks for your support and best regards
