Environment

Windows build number: 10.0.19041.0
Windows Terminal version (if applicable): Latest store version at filing, default settings file says 1.4.3243.0

Any other software? Powershell Core 7.1.0 is the main shell I use. Also using the "powerline in powershell" per the instructions in the docs. But, I'd be surprised if either of those mattered: I can echo the same URL from below in a WSL shell and it is similarly unclickable.

Steps to reproduce

I push something to GitHub, and a URL is displayed. But, control-click on it does nothing. You might be able to dump this from a file to terminal to repro.

Expected behavior

Expected underlining on hover with ctrl key down, and upon click on link with ctrl key down, for the page to open in my default browser, just as happens in the vscode terminal.

Actual behavior

Nothing happens: acts just like I control-clicked any normal text.

I have tried re-generating config file and just transplanting changes, no luck. Changes are pretty minimal: I disabled ctrl-c and ctrl-v as copy/paste, re-arrange some profiles, add two new ones, and add some defaults for powerline and acrylic. (Turning those off doesn't fix it either)

I tried really hard to figure out how to get it to work: waited a long time after release, manually checked for updates in the store, dug through all the docs, but I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.
