In the following MWE, I want the bibliography to be sorted by the last name, first name of the first author/editor, and first name, last name of subsequent authors. In the attached image, they are sorted by lastname, first name for all authors, editors, even though subsequent authors are listed as first name last name.
In the index, I want {\"U} to be sorted as U, and not as a separate group.
