In the same vein, if you use a repl on a remote machine you should check out detachtty if you're not already using it. It's particularly nice for use within emacs because it doesn't eat the whole screen and it doesn't eat ^A.

fwiw, screen doesn't "eat ^A"

You can send ^a to a window in screen by typing "^a a" - I do this everyday using emacs inside of screen. It becomes second nature.
