Well, apart from the MPD documentation which helpfully reminds us that the meaning of artist name itself is not well defined, one might look at the MusicBrainz official style guideline on formatting an artist's sort name.
The metadata we have available in MPD is inadequate for all the queries we may wish to put against our libraries. Since it's based in turn on well entrenched practices in the music recording industry, it's unlikely to improve. As an old hand at information modeling, I could wish for better but as a pragmatist I just deal with it.
