Description
Mosh client got into a slightly inconsistent state and I wanted the local process to repaint the screen. The way to do that was to hit ^L, which also sends ^L to the remote process. In this case my remote process responds to ^L not with a simple repaint but by clearing the screen, and that was undesirable.
It would be nice if some keybinding like ^^^L would do a local repaint and not send anything to the remote process.

Research direction
No files or tests are mentioned. Start by tracing how the mosh client handles the existing ^L repaint and keybindings. Done means a separate keybinding repaints locally without sending input to the remote process, while ^L retains its current behavior.
