Windows Terminal version

1.14.2282.0

Windows build number

Microsoft Windows NT 10.0.25182.0

Other Software

PowerShell 7.2.6 with PSReadline 2.1.0
PowerShell 7.3.0-preview.7 with PSReadline 2.2.6

Steps to reproduce

As per this issue in the PowerShell Repo

Windows Terminal only allows pasting of a block of text which it then attempts to run line by line no matter how you try pasting as neither CTRL + V, CTRL + SHIFT + V, SHIFT + INSERT or right click paste worked for me

Expected Behavior

One of these pasting methods should paste this as a single block which can then be run by the user as a whole block, not breaking user experience expectations

Actual Behavior

Windows terminal pastes in each line one by one whilst attempting to run individual lines from the pasted text
This wrongly creates in PowerShell a Parser error, due to the lack of ability to paste all as a single block before running it as a whole block
