Since 'mosh' exists, working with a laptop from different places on the same surviving connection (on screen of course) is a lot easier than before. :-) Except if the laptop reboots, for which you still ned screen. But, may be the answer to the original Subject, is as simple as: If you have the wrong login-shell and can not change it, you eighter set the SHELL Variable in your startup files, or you put 'shell /usr/bin/zsh' into your '~/.screenrc'. In both cases all Screen-Windows run with 'zsh'.
