@Cynosarges - I create a note in Evernote for the authors real name -- e.g. Margaret Astrid Lindholm Ogden -- and paste the link for that note into the Author Link field in Manage Authors for the pen names -- Megan Lindholm, Robin Hobb, etc, etc.
When I click on an Author name in Book Details that has an Evernote link in the Link field, Evernote will start if its not running and open up that note. In Evernote I can store whatever info I want for the Author - including links back to calibre via calibre-server urls.
Added: I create Evernote notes for Authors because calibre has no natural place to store author information, using it as I do for pen-names is a fortuitous by-product.
