I use screen sparingly (when it matters (remote long running process that I need to not die just cause Comcast Cable sucks ass and drops my internet) but would never use it "all the time" Fucking with Ctrl-A and my scroll back constantly pisses me off.

Personally I have the 'escape' mapped to the back-tick (`), and if I need to send an actual back-tick then I just hit it twice (``). I ripped this setup off from someone on StackOverflow.
