Hi,

It's a few days I'm using Calibre and going to sort authors of 2000+ books.
In Persian it's common that surnames have a suffix. for example: pur, abadi, nezhad, etc.

Code:

first, last
ali, zamani pur
kamran, sharafi pur
hasan, kamal abadi
fatemeh, ebrahim abadi
arash, karim nezhad

I would like to do less manual tweaks for fixing authorsort and instead use a tweak to automatically treat all common suffixes as suffixes for surnames just like the one we have for prefixes.
