I promised to find the language we had for ecaping wildcards in a previous
version.

It follows:

When "with wildcards" is present indicators and qualifiers must be escaped by a
backslash (\ ) if they are to be read as punctuation marks rather than
indicators and qualifiers. A period which is not an indicator must be preceded
by a backslash to be read as a period. Similarly a question mark, asterisk, or
plus sign which is not a qualifier must be preceded by a backslash to be read
as a question mark, asterisk, or plus sign.
