I have changed nothing here except for installing the latest WT builds, WindowsTerminal 1.21.2408.23001 and WindowsTerminal 1.22.2408.23002 (preview). The following is new behavior. It only happens in the 1.22 preview (not in 1.21 or in previous releases of any kind).

Whenever text on a command line in progress is erased (backspace, Esc, when scrolling through the history) the background color is replaced by black.
