Multiple Sort Orders

Hi, I am hoping the following feature could be added to Plex Media Server. I'd like the ability to sort artists in the Music library with several positions. For example, given an artist with a given name, I'd like it to appear sorted according to it's first and last name, example:

  • Bob Dylan
  • Dylan, Bob
    Meaning the same artist is listed twice, under B and D. Likewise, multiple artists collaborating on an album should appear several times in the list of artists, for example:

  • Jonh Cale & Terry Reilly

  • Cale, John & Terry Rielly
  • Terry Rielly & John Cale
  • Reilly, Terry & John Cale
    Which would list them in four positions, under J, C, T, and R.
    This could be done by simply having a reserved character in the "artist sort" field that treats the strings as a list, example:
    "Bob Dylan|Dylan, Bob"

I've googled around a bit and can't find a way of doing this currently (Running version 2.8.1). If the feature is already available somehow, please let me know.

Thanks!
