Bug Description

byobu version 5.116
tmux 2.3

Inside docker with ubuntu:zesty

When creating a ~/.byobu/windows.tmux config that looks like so:

new-session 'test';
new-window -n shell;
send-keys -t shell "hello world";

And then running byobu. We have "helloworld".

send-keys -t shell "hello Space world";

prints "hello world"

send-keys -l -t shell "hello world";

prints "helloworld"

send-keys -t shell hello world;

prints helloworld

tmux && tmux send-keys "hello world"

prints hello world

It seems this is a bug related to my env or byobu.
