Return separate first name and last name fields for authors?

[AspenPine]

Would it be possible to have separate fields for authors' first and last names in the Book library? Actually, I know we can create those ourselves, of course. What I'm really asking, I guess, is whether first names and last names could be returned (and then saved) in separate fields when you do a book query. That would make it easier to sort on author. It's not terribly useful to sort on first name, so right now I have to edit the name in the Author field each time to make it Lastname, Firstname. If the first and last names were returned separately, it would save a bit of entry time.

I expect it depends on how you get the data back from Amazon.com, but I thought I'd make the request. Thanks for listening!

I have this logged for review. I'll have to see how the data is returned from the Internet source to ensure the name can be parsed properly.
