My patch does that.  If you specify:

define serviceescalation {
   hostgroup_name          nagios_hosts
   contact_groups          admins
   first_notification      1     ; notify right away (1st notification)
   last_notification       0     ; notify until service changes state
   notification_interval   240   ; default to 4 hour re-notify
   escalation_period       24x7
  service_description     .*
   escalation_options      u,w,r
   register                0
}

Then you will get an escalation on warning, unknown, and recovery
escalations when then service returns from unknown OR warning (but in
the above case, *not* critical) to OK

If you put.

define serviceescalation {
   hostgroup_name          nagios_hosts
   contact_groups          admins
   first_notification      1     ; notify right away (1st notification)
   last_notification       0     ; notify until service changes state
   notification_interval   240   ; default to 4 hour re-notify
   escalation_period       24x7
  service_description     .*
   escalation_options      u,r
   register                0
}

You would only receive escalation notifications if the service goes
into an UNKNOWN state or recovers from an unknown state.

Does that clarify it? :)

So from what I hear from you it looks like my patch might fix the very
bug you are mentioning.
