Well, just only it seems I have understand source of problem in original
function. It have try escape fro RegEX AND SQL. This cause problems.

We have remove now REGEX escaping.

So MAY BE we instead can have other function

    s1 

    s2 = Valentina.EscapeForRegex( s1 )

    s3 = Valentina.EscapeString( s2 )
