I'm using https://github.com/mattn/emmet-vim plugin for vim to expand css like selectors to actual html. To invoke Expand Abbreviation, it uses Ctrly,, unfortunately, this is picked up by Terminal and open the settings instead.

Environment

Windows build number: Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.19030.1]   
Windows Terminal version (if applicable): 0.7.3291.0


Any other software?

Steps to reproduce

Open or create a New File:

vim index.html

Type ("_" is the cursor position):

html:5_

Then type <c-y>, (Ctrly,), and you should see:

Expected behavior

<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html lang="en">
<head>
	<meta charset="UTF-8">
	<title></title>
</head>
<body>
	_
</body>
</html>

Actual behavior

It opens the settings profiles.json

Note: I have tried remapping the settings to use Ctrl; instead but it still open if I try to "expand abbreviation" Ctrly,

So I guess this is another form of bug, where you can't remap the settings to a different key?
