The commas will still be there between the parts of the name and hence the author list will have an entry for "FN" and "LN". And for multiple authors, there will probably be "LN1", "FN1", "LN2" and "FN2".
Yes, that's the way I store my authors: "LN, FN", in authors and author sort.
I won't change it just because Kobo can't use it in its new feature of listing authors, I'll just not use this feature
