The problem is that the WildcardQuery itself doesn't have a concept of escaped 
characters. The escape characters are removed in QueryParser. This mean 
"t?\\?t" will arrive as "t??t" in WildcardQuery and the second question mark is 
also interpreted as a wildcard.

> If an escaped wildcard character is specified in a wildcard query, it is 
> treated as a wildcard instead of a literal.
> e.g., t\??t is converted by the QueryParser to t??t - the escape character is 
> discarded.
