Description of the new feature/enhancement

We can use several configurable key strokes to paste anything inside the terminal, but the clipboard history (win + v) does not seem to have any effect at all.

I am not sure what causes this, but I am sure I would love seeing support for it!

Thanks for the suggestion! Please make sure to search for duplicates when filing new issues. This is already being tracked by another issue on our repo - please refer to #322 for more discussion.

I believe it will work if you add ctrl+v as paste to the keybindings:

{ "command": "paste", "keys": "ctrl+v" },
