The rendering changes, requiring explicit deactivation of rendition monitor|bell, are by design.

The rendering-munging that can take place when the current window gets a bell flag (can happen with multiple connections to the same session), has been fixed with b4ba7b0a3c5be36050ef0deb68a6b19fd46f501e.

Also, a beep on the final window affects the rendering of any padding that may follows it (to default/black background)

I'm assuming this was introduced with the "beeped" window attributes feature.

Apparently if you don't specify rendition settings for beeped windows, it'll default to "gray-on-black" ("default" rendering), rather than whatever other settings may have been specified for it. My screenrc has:

caption always "%{= bw}%-Lw%{= BW}%50>%n*%f %t%{-}%+Lw%=%>%{= by}%+p%{-}/%{bY}%p%<"

so windows have a blue background. However, if one of the windows gets an alert, that window is then rendered as gray-on-black, despite the fact that I didn't ask for that. This constitutes a regression over previous behavior.
