Now the visitor first hits the division by author and second division by
schematic/footprint and third division by the part itself.

I suggest that the first division would be to symbols and footprints,
then directories according to part type (transistor / IC / connector /
passive component etc.) then division by part type and author
information to be included in the information attached to the symbol.

I believe my proposed arrangement is much faster to actually work with.
