Bug Description
It is possible to use string interpolation in StringOption values. (And in DictOptions, too.)
It is possible to include a percent sign in a StringOption value, if it is specified as "raw=True".
It is NOT possible to do BOTH interpolation AND include a percent sign in StringOption.
According to this StackExchange post, the solution could simply be to use "SafeConfigParser" instead of "ConfigParser".
