Environment

Windows build number: Microsoft Windows NT 10.0.18363.0

Steps to reproduce

  1. Open Windows Terminal
  2. Open WSL / ssh (or PowerShell)
  3. Press Alt + Space

Expected behavior

Alt + Space should be sent as key to the shell. If a keybinding is stored in the shell, it should work (ZSH / TMUX & co)

Actual behavior

Alt + Space opens the default Windows RMB on Title Bar Dialog.
