I have also adjusted the author tokens to ignore any single characters (i.e. initials).

So now the results for a Similar search are:

Name:	AuthorVariations.png
Views:	251
Size:	42.0 KB
ID:	197117

So the only case that isn't being caught by Similar is Frederic/Frederik. Which is what I would expect - that is precisely what a Soundex search is targeting. A "Similar" search is about removing punctuation, author name ordering (and now initials).
