Hey there mates. New to calibre here.
I'm managing my paper book collection using calibre and I'd like to inquire about a common problem in the area. Is there a plugin for linking 2 or more different writers/publishers, so when typing one name it feeds me results for all linked names? This can happen when a writer uses different names in different books. E.g, I'd like to be able to find Jason C. Connor's books if I search for Jason mcCloud(and they happen to be the same guy). This is called "authority" in library management.

Thanks to all the contributors, keep reading!
