I like to order my authors by first name! That worked very well by replacing space by unbreakable space in metadaplugboard and it still works for my old GloHD. Recently there was a change for my Aura 1 which ignores this. I assume the new function to group books by authors is braking the names independent of the kind of space.
To force the order by first name I now use undercore (looking not that nice but proper sorting is more important to me).
It works well but ...
1) all multiple authors are sorted at the top of the list although the value looks good without any extra space before or after the ampersand
{authors:.20: re( ,_)} Thariot_&_Sam_Feuerb
2) In the past I added more information to the author. But now I like to move that to the sub-title. Switching on the sub-title also set the series information on (independent whether the field is marked or not). I would prefer I can decide whether or not to show them. But beside that, how can I change the series name to titlecase(). I tried metadataplugboard for series: {series:titlecase()| |}{series_index:0>2s| [|]} and KoboUtility update series but it is still uppercase.
