Description of the new feature/enhancement

Support inline right-click copy and paste for PowerShell. Although this may be an issue specific to PowerShell, MobaXTerm on Windows supports it just fine, so either PowerShell or Windows Terminal is doing something wrong.

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)

I'm unfamiliar with the code, so I'm not sure how it would be done.

Could you clarify? The Windows Terminal should already support right-click for copy and paste... Does this not work for you currently? What version of the Terminal are you running?

The latest release. I guess I'm expecting a right-click context menu within the app like what I get in MobaXterm (also Windows) or Konsole in KDE on Linux.

Ahhh, okay, I think you're looking for #3337, and maybe #1553 is related as well. Right now we just copy by default, but there's been discussion to may that configurable, so the user could open a dropdown menu instead.

/dup #3337

@zadjii-msft OK fair enough. I'll get on that original bug then. Thanks!
