I believe this was fixed after VB shipped. I can't reproduce it on 20000+, but I can reproduce it with the 19041 conhost.

Use terminal 😁

I'd love to but I can't use terminal if it breaks my muscle memory with functionality such as keyboard selection etc. not working, sorry.

It looks like this was broken in !1768108 (2018!) and fixed incidentally in #3590. Resolving fixed -- it'll come out inbox with whatever comes after 19041!
