Is it just for familiarity or are there specific features lacking in screen 
that you think
would benefit devstack? I’ve tried tmux a couple of times but didn’t find any
compelling reason to switch from screen. I wouldn’t argue against anyone who
wants to use it for their day to day needs. But don’t just change devstack on a 
whim,
list out the objective benefits.

Having a configuration option to switch between devstack-screen and 
devstack-tmux
seems like it would probably add more complexity than benefit, especially if 
there
are any functional differences. If there are functional differences it would be 
better
to decide which one is best (for devstack, not necessarily best for everyone in 
the world)
and go with that one only.
