Just my 2 cents, I'm flexible.
It would need to be author by series by title. I would be happy to do this, but I am concerned that it wouldn't be obvious to people what the order actually is. If they don't, then they will "lose" books, which leads to bug reports.

I am considering using the last sorts to generate the secondary keys. Under this scheme, if you sort by series then author, you would get what you are looking for. If you sort by title then author. Experience with calibre tells me that this behavior can be mysterious, but at least it would be consistent.
