TBH, I'm not sure we necessarily need to try to solve all of these
problems in sbopkg.  If the GNU Screen extra characters issue bothers
someone, they could work around it by putting something like the
following untested kludge in their .bashrc:

case "$TERM" in
        screen*) alias sbopkg="TERM=xterm-color sbopkg" ;;
esac

However, the signal handling issue might be a different animal that
cannot easily be worked around like that.  I just have not looked at
it yet.
