Windows Terminal version (or Windows build number)

1.9.1942.0

Other Software

OpenSSH_for_Windows_8.1p1

Steps to reproduce

Interaction: Automatically copy selection to clipboard: yes

copy paste an entire line in a config for example by double clicking
the entire line is selected
right click to copy paste it

Expected Behavior

after the right click, I would expect the line to copy paste and include the entire. This behavior is found in PuTTY or Terminator on Linux

Or, at least give an option to copy paste the enter along

Actual Behavior

The line is copy/pasted, but the enter is stripped and requires the user to actually hit enter to insert the line. For SSH connections on routers and pasting configuration, the automatic enter is really useful
