Hello, list.

GNU Screen supports a way to send escape sequences to the underlying
terminal via the Device Control String sequence (though there's some
indication that it may be buggy). I'd like to know if there's a way to
accomplish this in tmux, and if not whether such a feature would be
welcome.

Mimicking the Screen approach may be a problem, as it conflicts with
the input state-machine design. In particular, sending Esc as part of
a Device Control String is not supported (instead it would immediately
terminate the string). Are there any suggestions for another approach?
Perhaps a standard way, or a reasonable way to add a non-standard
extension to the terminal emulation? I'm willing to do the work and
submit a patch, assuming it's welcome and not too arduous.

Thanks.

-Kevin
