That regexp looks _slow_.  And I am surprised that the + should not
be interpreted specially.  How about
ended\.(\(-?[0-9]*\)\+\(-?[0-9]+\)x\(-?[0-9]+\))/\1

Anyhow: if you need your entries in a different format, there is no
sane reason why I should not write them out immediately in the format
you desire: this is a LyX-specific option, no need to make it more
complicated for LyX to parse it than necessary.
