Steps to reproduce

@DHowett told me to bind copilot chat to shift+/ which I thought was an alright idea.

That is... until I tried to type a question mark at the end of my query for Copilot to answer... which rightfully dismissed the input box.

However, when I brought it back up again.... everything I typed was gone.

Expected Behavior

I would have expected the box to preserve and keep my input through to reopening the dialog.

Actual Behavior

The input on Copilot chat is empty on every launch, even if it was dismissed with content inside it.
