Mosh: Option to disable mosh-client repaint on Ctrl-L

[githuberto]

Pressing Ctrl-L in mosh seems to be triggering a client-side repaint. This is good for single-terminal sessions, but it's not always desirable. For example, when using https://github.com/christoomey/vim-tmux-navigator, Ctrl-L becomes a navigation keystroke, so mosh repaints every time you navigate to the right which can be jarring and laggy.

Would it be possible to have an option to disable this client-side repaint prediction?

The Ctrl-L behavior has irritated me slightly for a long time. A possible fix:

• Ctrl-L just passes through, no repaint
• Ctrl-^ Ctrl-L for repaint

How would people feel about that?

I would think that all commands to the client itself need to be preceded by the escape sequence.
