Thanks for the quick reply.
I thought about % being an escape character. I should have looked at the
documentation, I guess. But what fooled me was, when I type "50% of dogs are
male" with a single % and hit ENTER my messages is posted properly on the
channel. The % sign doesn't gets lost, which is not the case for most
implementations of an escape character.

Anyhow, you are contradicting yourself :) Let me demonstrate:

You are saying that % is an escape character. That means that you are expecting
the user to type %% to display a single %. That's fine. But then you shouldn't
double the number of % signs that are copied from the input box. Those are
already doubled by the user.

I am pretty sure there is a bug somewhere, but not necessarily the way I
reported in the first place. Should I open another one?
