How do I allow a semicolon in the File header? (possible bug)

[WilliamAntonRohm]

(copied from MicrosoftDocs/visualstudio-docs/issues/6386, relating to Add file header)

With this:

.editorconfig:

; Top-most EditorConfig file
root = true
[*.cs]
file_header_template = a;b;c

Add -> Class, will generate:

// a

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;

namespace NLog
{
    class Class1
    {
    }
}

I expected // a;b;c and not // a

It this a bug as the specs say it should not be interpreted as comment.

Comment: starts with a ; or a #.

Inserting a # or ; after non-whitespace characters in a line (i.e., inline) shall neither be parsed as a comment nor as part of the section name, pair (defined below) key or value in which it was inserted. This may change in the future; thus, is not recommended.
