Although I see the 34 mode in terminfo, I still cannot reproduce the 
cursor switching behaviour,
neither with this .screenrc, nor with a .tmux.conf with 'set-option 
default-terminal screen-256color'.
According to TERM=screen-256color infocmp -1|grep 34
 Â Â Â Â Â Â Â  cnorm=\E[34h\E[?25h,
 Â Â Â Â Â Â Â  cvvis=\E[34l,
the cursor could be turned into an underline when "cursor_normal" mode 
is restored, i.e. when a screen application terminates.
But which application does actually send the cnorm sequence?
