requested by Sarah Shreeves (for uiuc connections, but applicable to Bibapp at large):

In publications lists, titles that have "the" as the first word in the title are filed under the T's. We should be ignoring "The" and filing these by the next letter. The same is true for other common stop words. I wasn't sure if this is a larger BibApp issue; if it is, we should deal with this there as well. The same is true for works. We should also be ignoring punctuation at the start of titles. There are many that have a ( or " or ' at their start.
