Sorry I can't offer any solution, but I have another flavor
of this problem.

I run into particular trouble when citing software
packages and other computer-related stuff (data files,
whatever).  With a corporate author (SPSS Inc.), I end
up with the record sorted by the corportion's last name
(Inc. in this case) -- which makes finding the right
citation a bit like mind reading.
