Displaying Artist but sorting by Artists Sort

Is there any way in the Library to display the artist name, but sort by Artists Sort.

As an example, I'd like it to display "The Who," but it have it display under W instead of T.

That would be a job for the media library viewer that you are using. Library just stores the tracks. Columns UI has historically supported different sort and display strings but I didn't see this feature implemented in panels. So far Peter hasn't shown interest to implement the feature anywhere.

I'm using Facets as my library viewer.  Reading it's documentation now to see if it's do-able.  I've never been a fan of the column UI.
