For the series, he means using series_sort data in a similar way to calibre's author_sort. Calibre does have this, it just doesn't expose it in the same way as either the title or author sorts.

As for sorting author by FN LN or LN, FN? Not really a concern for me. Search works rather well and is much easier than paging through hundreds of pages at 5 books per page.
I tend to use search a lot more now than previously, but, I also frequently just page through the lists looking from something to catch my eye. I'm much morre likely to know what I don't want to read next, rather than what I do want to read. A series list would give me another view of the books.
