  1. Author format for multiple-word family names 

    Line 891:
Simple switch to change formatting authors as "{given name} {family name}" to "{family name}, {given name}". 
This reduces ambiguity for multiple-word family names, such as van De Merwe or Gonzalez López. Standardising on this allows simple bibtex parsers to parse authors lists correctly without trying to catch all the exceptions. 

I admit that I don't have a good understanding of how :family and :given are being generated but this works for all articles I have tested; I imagine journals encode family and given names separately within their more expressive metadata.
