Environment

Windows build number: 10.0.18362.0
Windows Terminal version (if applicable): 0.4.2382.0

Steps to reproduce

  1. Start ssh connection to host which asks password for authentication or use Python getpass.getpass()
  2. Paste string from clipboard buffer to prompt
  3. Correct information will not be pasted and and Python just stays waiting for input even after enter

Expected behavior

Correct string will be pasted to prompt and programs should continue as expected.

Actual behavior

Password prompts will not recieve pasted string correctly.
