Windows Terminal version

1.15.2874.0

Windows build number

10.0.19045.0

Other Software

No response

Steps to reproduce

  1. Set keyboard layout to Russian;
  2. Launch Windows Terminal;
  3. Try to press CTRL+C, CTRL+Z, anything while holding CTRL, for example, hold CTRL and press QWERTY.

Expected Behavior

CTRL key shortcuts work (CTRL+C, CTRL+U, etc)

Actual Behavior

Holding CTRL and pressing keys prints Russian letters instead of treating it as a shortcut.
Even if I switch to English layout, CTRL + <key> prints that letter from Russian layout.

In other words, if I launch WT while Russian layout is active, and then try to press CTRL+QWERTY inside Terminal, Terminal instead prints йцукен (these are Russian layout letters of the QWERTY keys) and it doesn't work like a shortcut at all.
