So I sometimes need to make alterations to aliases and the easiest way to do that is often with other aliases. So I'm simply proposing the addition of the escape character to %n% type variables.

I propose that the literal %% be used to represent a single % in the output. If I'm reading the module code right, it shouldn't be too difficult to add another case to the token parser for that, and it would match e.g. Python's string interpolation.
