Follow-up Comment #1, bug #27713 (project screen): I independently thought of this same idea today. Indeed, I even picked the same %E string escape sequence!
I have attached a patch that will do precisely this. I tested it successfully using nested sessions when I typed the escape character. I'm not sure what other ways the escape sequence can be generated, but I believe this patch will work there too. (I searched for all occurrences of D_ESCseen.) I followed the same format as the patch for %P added in December. This is my first attempt at a patch using git, so I'm not quite sure how to describe what I patched against. I believe I created it against the master branch as of this evening when I pulled it down.
