Uhhh... that someone was me. The change was made in 0.7.3. For the rationale, please see https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=86800, and in particular post 23.

Depending on how you want to maintain authors (fn ln or ln, fn), you might want to look at the author_sort 'tweak' that has been around for quite some time. The tweak tells calibre how to compute author_sort from author. See https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...30&postcount=8 and the file tweaks.py in your configuration folder.
