Huh. Well I unfortunately can't repro this locally. That being said, I'm running a Windows 11 build that looks like it's got some touch keyboard improvements in it. So I'm gonna call this one Resolution-Fixed-In-Windows-11

@zadjii-msft but it doesn't sound right for this to only be fixed in a version of Windows that cannot run on many devices. :/

FYI, this looks like the same bug as #12977, which was fixed in PR #13667. As long as you have Windows Terminal version 1.15 or later it should also be working correctly in Windows 10. I'm also still on Windows 10 and it definitely works for me.
