Pasting into terminal find doesn't work on Windows

[levani]

• VSCode Version: 1.14.1
• OS Version: Windows 10

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Copy some text
2. Focus on terminal and click ctrl+f and then ctrl+v

Search input is focused but after clicking ctrl+v the text is pasted in terminal itself.

Reproduces without extensions: Yes

Also on macOS when I focus in the search input and click command+a the text in terminal is selected, not the input content. Pasting works fine though.

The problem seems to be that keyboard shortcuts don't always work in the context of the search input when it's focused...

The cmd+a thing is fixed in Insiders I believe.

This happens because TerminalPasteAction is assigned the Ctrl+V shortcut and it hijacks the input from the TerminalFindWidget.

Daniel Imms (@Tyriar), do you think changing the default keybinding to Ctrl+Shift+V would be ok? In this case, pressing Ctrl+V in the find widget works as expected.

It's ctrl+v as I've tried to stay in line with OS standards and that's what cmd.exe uses. This should be able to get fixed by resolving the conflict.

It also happens when you right click the search box, at least on Windows - see details described here.
