This is not true for XPath. The "%" notation is not recognized.

Good idea to break this up and concatenate.
But the basic problem remains, how to match for the single " ?
\"'\" does not work :-(
In XSLT 2:
"//*[contains(., concat('What','''',' that?'))]"
or more simply just:
"//*[contains(., 'What'' that?')]"
In XSLT 1:
"//*[contains(., 'What' that?)]"
But be careful because the above selects the document element which
will contain all text in its value.

Perhaps this might get ugly, but not without a solution to match for
the single " character ...
" is " - the double quote
' is ' - the apostrophe (single quote)
I hope this helps.
