I don't want to go off topic and I think the bug is present and was already noticed in the past.
I am a very beginner in those fields but for what concerns loudness and normalization I think that a good way of acting is taking a powerful sound processor Orban/Omnia-like and give it room to work with. It think it even tries to create a bit of dynamics to the new modern compressed music if you want. By the way: how many of you use that "Gain" feature in RDLibrary? We just apply the default -13 norm. of rdimport and let the processor (ours is software based) do the rest.
