So just for the record: 1. Between 0.9.3 and 1.0.0 the way that "%" are parsed within a users file (cistron compat or not) has changed, variable expansion is always on. 2. There is currently no way to get the previous behavior back in a 100% compatible way (let alone that rewriting the quoting as suggested would require quite more effort than some global config option somewhere).
