  • Your Windows build number: (Type ver at a Windows Command Prompt)
    10.0.18890.1000

  • What you're doing and what's happening: (Copy & paste specific commands and their output, or include screen shots)
    Build & run the new Windows Terminal, and type something using IME (I am using Microsoft Pinyin IME)

  • What's wrong / what should be happening instead:
    The IME UI appears in the upper left corner of the screen, not following the current cursor.

So this is the same issue that makes the IME UI with a green arrow appear when opening the emoji panel? In #1557 I wasn't expecting that UI at all.

It sure is! The toolbar with the green arrow is actually a fallback UI for when the application doesn't explicitly say "Here's an input handler!"
