Bug Description

I have a dual-boot OS X and Linux computer. Itunes on OS X puts a bunch of metadata files of the form "._4 - Hard To Handle.mp3" in my music folder (on a shared ZFS disk). On import of this folder to Noise, all of these metadata files get copied to the library.

It would be useful if I could tell it to ignore all "._*" files where "*" is a wildcard.

Alternately, if there were a way to check if a file ending with an audio file extension has a playtime length, we could filter these files out implicitly at Library import time.

Edit: This was on Noise 0.3.0
