That is a good idea.
Kovid approved (and debugged) a change I made to the Sony driver, so it will be in 0.7.3. There is a new customization option 'Use author sort for author'. If you check it, then the author sort field is stored in the Sony metadata database as author. That will make the 'by author' list sort properly. The option is off by default.
This change does not affect collections, assuming you make collections for authors.
