Environment

Windows build number: 10.0.18362.116
Windows Terminal version (if applicable): 71e19cd + changing toolset to v142 and SDK version

Steps to reproduce

  1. Clone, build, package, install and launch Windows Terminal (DevBuild).
  2. Execute docker run --rm -it mcr.microsoft.com/windows/nanoserver:1903
  3. Select multiple lines and right click.
  4. Paste in any text editor. I used VSCode.

Expected behavior

I expected to see the same thing I saw in the terminal - specifically multiple lines.

Actual behavior

One line with lots of space.

Notes

This is different from #65 since it was about conhost and I'm talking about the new terminal, and I didn't have Shift pressed.
