hardstatus in cygwin's screen is covering user input when using cygwin-connector #30

Hi! I am an avid ConEmu user and am currently using ConEmu alpha 180626 and latterly with ConEmu cygwin/msys connector version 1.2.5. I did not know about cygwin/msys connector yet and was pleasently surprised about this addition. But I sadly observed this following annoying behavior:

Somehow the hardstatus doubles and shifts one line up and covers the user input (see gif below).

To get to this point I configured the following hardstatus in screen's /etc/screenrc which works fine with ConEmu without cygwin-connector:

hardstatus alwayslastline
hardstatus string "%{.bW}%-w%{.rW}%n %t%{-}%+w %=%{..G} %H %{..Y} %d.%m.%y %c:%s "

--log output: (console size was 169x28 iirc)
connector-12992-in.log
connector-12992-out.log

I hope I provided enough info but am happy to add additional data. I would be thrilled if this could be fixed. Thanks in advance!

EDIT: Your posting in ConEmu/#1646 encouraged me to check connector-12992-out.log in mintty less -r connector-12992-out.log and it seems to look normal in mintty. So maybe a specific escape sequence leads to ConEmu losing its synchronicity?

mintty vs cygwin-connector: less -r "replay"
