Hi Jeff,
I forwarded this one to the system manager. He replied this:

I would consider that a bug. The last full stop should probably be
considered the beginning of the suffix, rather than the first.
Also, I'm not entirely convinced the pattern matching stopping at a "-"
in the artist name is a console error. The filename and pattern are
"quoted" properly, so the dash - and spaces shouldn't confuse the
console. And the filename is obviously passed properly to rdimport,
else rdimport shouldn't be able to find the file at all. Also, the same
syntax/command works fine with regular artist names. I'll have to do
some more experimenting with different syntaxes.
Either way, sure, it's all things we can work around. :-)

Kind regards and have a blast!

this one is a linux one ..
%a - %t.wav will sort out A-Ha Although you may have to %a\ -\ %t.wav on
some OS
your match has no gap after the %a
rdimport is going to see that first full stop [period] as the beginning
of the suffix
I would be cleaning out the extra '.' s and leaving .wav as the only
place you see a '.'
one more sed sweep for .
