Copy/paste does not work while agent is showing an interactive question with Wez's terminal emulator.

Describe the bug

Summary

With WezTerm, Paste-into-prompt does not work while the agent is displaying an interactive question (the elicitation/ask_user form). Pasting works normally outside of these prompts.

Repro

1. Using wezterm, start an interactive session with copilot.
2. Ask the agent something that causes it to invoke the elicitation/ask_user tool (i.e. it presents a form-style question with one or more fields).
3. Try to paste text into one of the form fields.

Expected

Standard terminal paste should populate the field with clipboard contents.

Actual

Paste keystroke is dropped or otherwise has no effect on the form field. Direction affected: paste-in only (copy-out from these prompts was not specifically tested).

Environment

• Copilot CLI version: 1.0.49-1 (GitHub Copilot CLI 1.0.49-1)
• OS: Windows 10.0.26200 (Windows 11)
• Shell: PowerShell 7.5.5
• Terminal: wezterm

Notes

• Reproducible across multiple prompts; happens specifically and only during the ask_user / elicitation form rendering, not during normal output or normal user-input lines.
• Workaround: cancel the form, paste the value into the next free-form prompt, and re-trigger the question. Not a fix.

Impact

Mild but recurring friction — every time the agent asks a structured question that needs pasted content (IDs, URLs, long titles, etc.), the user has to type or work around the form.
