I like this idea, DCS or APC with some tmux prefix would seem obvious but you'll need a way to escape stuff.
Maybe we just parse a string so you actually send the string "\033" and so on eg sometihng like printf "\\033_\\\033[42m\\" Bit fugly though. I don't know where I got the APC-sets-title behaviour from, xterm doesn't seem to support it. Or maybe we allow \033 during DCS, APC, OSC although we're not really supposed to.
