I may be misunderstanding here, but screen will send the escape key to
the running program if you hit it twice, right? I use the StumpWM window
manager, with the escape key also set to C-t, and I think both of them
behave the same way: first escape is caught, second is sent to the
program. So you'd do C-c C-t C-t d. How does that work?

Also, if you set `org-use-speed-commands' to t, you can use single
keystrokes when point is to the left of headline stars. I find this
immensely useful. Get point to the left margin and hit "t", that's all
you need.
