Given the following line in the .screenrc:

  hardstatus alwayslastline "%H: %n %t | %w | %l | %c:%s"

If you start screen and then change the time with e.g. "date -s '1
minute ago'", screen's status line shows the same time for one minute
and only then continues to show the current system time.

Note to myself: Not yet forwarded to upstream, just recorded here for
