Release notes 

  * usr/bin/byobu-config, usr/share/byobu/keybindings/f-keys,
    usr/share/byobu/keybindings/screen-escape-keys,
    usr/share/doc/byobu/help.txt, usr/bin/Makefile.am,
    usr/bin/byobu-ctrl-a: LP: #776743
    - use ctrl-^ as the default escape character
    - bind F12 to printing the escape character
    - adjust everything accordingly
  * usr/share/byobu/keybindings/f-keys,
    usr/share/byobu/keybindings/screen-escape-keys: LP: #776743
    - the first time a user presses ctrl-a, prompt them with a choice
      as to their preference of behavior (emacs vs. screen)
    - preserve this choice
  * usr/share/byobu/keybindings/f-keys: LP: #776740
    - improve alt-pgup / alt-pgdown
  * usr/share/byobu/profiles/common: LP: #776742
    - disable xterm/gnome-terminal's scrollback buffer
    - it seems we should be able to do this, at this point since byobu
      now has keybindings for alt-pgup and alt-pgdn
    - note that this commit does, however, revert the fix for an older bug
  * usr/share/byobu/keybindings/f-keys:
    - fix regression in rename F8 functionality, use <home> key
  * usr/lib/byobu/.notify_osd, usr/share/byobu/keybindings/f-keys,
    usr/share/byobu/profiles/common: LP: #776742, #776740
    - set msgwait and msginwait to both 0, to turn down the verbosity of
      screen's messaging, and speed up some byobu operations
    - improve scrollback (alt-pgup and alt-pgdn) by disabling screen's
      status message updates about 'copy mode', etc.
    - speed up the printscreen functionality
    - when running printscreen, open the result with the user's default
      viewer in a new window entitled PRINTSCREEN
  * usr/bin/byobu: LP: #777888
    - enable users to disable the title printing at launch (helpful for
      those launching byobu detached from cron, e.g.)
  * usr/share/byobu/tests/byobu-time-notifications:
    - fixup notification testing
  * usr/bin/byobu-status: minor performance improvement
  * usr/share/doc/byobu/help.txt: rearrange and update documentation
  * usr/bin/byobu-ctrl-a, usr/share/byobu/tests/byobu-time-
    notifications: update doc message
  * usr/bin/byobu-launch: LP: #780430, support a BYOBU_DISABLE environment
    variable, that ssh clients could export and globally disable launching
    byobu on ssh logins (note that this will require whitelisting that
    variable on the ssh client and server)
  * usr/share/byobu/profiles/common: fix printscreen screen exchange file
  * usr/share/byobu/keybindings/f-keys,
    usr/share/byobu/keybindings/screen-escape-keys:
    - simplify all calls to the screen escape key
  * usr/bin/byobu-quiet, usr/bin/byobu-status, usr/bin/Makefile.am,
    usr/share/byobu/profiles/common: LP: #780380
    - add a byobu-quiet utility, to silence eyecandy
  * usr/share/man/man1/byobu-ctrl-a.1, usr/share/man/man1/byobu-quiet.1,
    usr/share/man/man1/Makefile.am: document the new tools
  * usr/bin/byobu-config: ensure that escape key changing through byobu-config
    continues to work
