C-a also breaks Emacs-style navigation in readline applications (jump to beginning of line, a pretty useful function). And of course it breaks navigation in Emacs too (which I frequently use over SSH). C-q is also useful in Emacs, so my tmux is remapped to use C-^ as the prefix key. Nothing useful sits there for other programs, and I personally don't need the tmux prefix often (I do 90% of things straight from Emacs, and it has its own windowing capability).
