Does escape processing only ever use stderr?

Type ENTER ~ ? in an open ssh session. (three characters, no spaces)


And are sessions with channel muxing a concern?

David, your communication style is horrible. It makes you look really bad
and it significantly decreases the chances of you and your concern being
taken seriously.

I believe that you want to make a constructive contribution, but
statements such as the above have the complete opposite effect!
