Comment (by vtbassmatt):

 I would create a documentation PR myself, but I don't understand the issue
 enough to feel comfortable educating others. Summary of behavior is that
 when I created a custom expression, something between the code I wrote and
 the SQLite driver was eating some of my escape characters. I had to
 express a logical "%W" as "%%%%W" (four percent characters) to get it
 working properly. I've lost most of the context about the failure, but I
 recall expecting to need two percents (%%W) and being surprised that it
 took four.
