If you decide to try it please leave any comments in this thread. I'll use any feedback (or lack thereof) to decide whether to include it in the standard kobopatch pack for future firmwares.

Copy into your copy of nickel.yaml (or wherever you normally store your customised nickel.yaml patches).
Works well on my Clara. Could you explain how kobo is reading author names?
I use {authors}, ln, fn, and kobo gives me all kinds of different results. Just first name, just initials, just fn and initial and sometimes last name. Makes the authors page pretty useless. Is that normal or something I probably did?
