Steps to reproduce

  1. Delete any saved Windows Terminal settings.
  2. Start Windows Terminal.
  3. Use the mouse to select some text in the pane.
  4. Press Ctrl+Shift+P to open the command palette.
  5. Type abc.
  6. Press Ctrl+A to select the text abc.
  7. Press Ctrl+Insert.

Expected behavior

The text abc should be copied to the clipboard, and the command palette should remain open.

Notes

If you copy by pressing Ctrl+C instead of Ctrl+Insert, then it works as expected.
