In my experience, this is pretty rare, can you point to an example? The japanese artists which need to be treated like this will usually be in japanese, and/or some of the tracks on the album will be in kanji/kana. I think it's quite reasonable to ask for a clarification from the editor who entered the mod if you're unsure.
