[issue13685] argparse does not sanitize help strings for % signs

[Eric V. Smith]

Eric V. Smith <eric at trueblade.com> added the comment:

This is because the help text support substitution, as mentioned here: http://docs.python.org/dev/library/argparse.html#help

It's possible this documentation could be improved.
