Hi Sabiya,

I discussed some ideas with the Xen developers and a good project we
came up with was extending the "xl console" command to take a "-e"
option that allows the user to change the escape character. Currently
the escape sequence is hardcoded to "Ctrl-]". The input should be "-e
escapechar" where the new escape sequence is "Ctrl-escapechar". Let me
know if this makes sense and if it sounds like something you'd like to
tackle and I can follow up with your further on a test environment and
getting setup to proceed.
