Other Software

No response

Steps to reproduce

I frequently rename my tabs so that I know what each one is used for. I often paste (from my clipboard) to override the default tab name. When I do this, the tab name is replaced (with the string that I want), but it also pastes the string into the command line window. If the focus is on the tab name then surely the string shouldn't paste into the command window?!?!

Windows Terminal Tab Paste

Expected Behavior

When pasting from the clipboard into the "Tab Name" field then the string shouldn't paste into the command window.

Actual Behavior

When you paste into the "Tab Name" field then the string is pasted into the "Tab Name" field AND the main "Command Window".
