Of course it
can be honored. If you believe that screaming a falsehood in capital letters will make it true, too bad. The rest of your post, as usual, are just an avalanche of personal insults because, as usual, there is no substance to what you're saying and you're not discussing the issue at hand at all, so you can only resort to personal insults.
The bottom line to this authors sorting issue is: Marvin 2 can do it, so of course Marvin 3 should do it as well. I'm utterly baffled as to why Kris refuses to implement a fix,

and why this particular sorting issue has
always posed problems for Kris, even in Marvin 1 and Marvin 2 – see the needlessly doubled "'Author..." and (nonsensically labeled) "Author sort..." options there. Now Kris has correctly (finally!) removed that doubling of sorting menu options in Marvin 3, but in doing so, he has also killed Marvin 2's functionality in being able to sort authors sensibly and intelligently, according to their last names. And no, not even a thousand blog posts can justify that, although Kris is certainly welcome to try and justify the unjustifiable. I'd appreciate a lot more, though, if he spent that time by implementing a fix instead.
