It appears that "terminal.integrated.env.windows" is weirdly case sensitive on Windows.

  "terminal.integrated.env.windows": {
    "Path" : "blah"
  }

in the powershell:

$Env:Path
blah
$Env:PATH
blah

If you make it

{
  "terminal.integrated.env.windows": {
    "PATH" : "blah"
  }
}

Then it'll fail to override path altogether....

$Env:Path
BLOB OF SYSTEM PATHS
$Env:PATH
BLOB OF SYSTEM PATHS

If you make it

{
  "terminal.integrated.env.windows": {
    "PATH2" : "blah"
  }
}

$Env:PATH2
Blah
$Env:Path2
Blah
