Following is what I have:
# Author sort name algorithm

author_sort_copy_method = 'comma'

author_name_suffixes = ('Jr', 'Sr', 'Inc', 'Ph.D', 'Phd', 'MD', 'M.D', 'I', 'II', 'III', 'IV', 'Junior', 'Senior')

author_name_prefixes = ('Mr', 'Mrs', 'Ms', 'Dr', 'Prof')

author_name_copywords = ('Corporation', 'Company', 'Co.', 'Agency', 'Council', 'Committee', 'Inc.', 'Institute', 'Society', 'Club', 'Team')

If I edit the metadata all of my "author sort" fields are FN LN and I now want them to be LN, FN. I'm looking for the silver bullet that will change all of my books (16,084) from FN LN to LN, FN for the author sort.
