Environment

Windows build number: Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.18362.239]
Windows Terminal version: Version: 0.3.2171.0

Steps to reproduce

  • Open the about window
  • Increase the width of the terminal window (it helps to start with a smaller terminal window to have room for this step)

Expected behavior

  • The about dialog should remain modal -- the window under the about dialog should not allow me to click the new tab / minimize / maximize / close buttons.

Actual behavior

  • The about dialog only disables a rectangle based on the original window size. This can lead to behavior where the user opens a new tab and regains focus onto the terminal.
