Keyboard text selection with Shift not working

[dylank]

Environment

Windows build number: Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.18363.1082]
Windows Terminal version (if applicable): 1.3.2651.0

Any other software?

Steps to reproduce

Text selection with keyboard no longer working

In regular command prompt, you can highlight text with the keyboard by holding shift and using arrow keys/home key. It also works with word groups (e.g. ctrl+shift+left arrow)

This doesnt work with windows terminal

Expected behavior

Text is selected, as is copy paste, like regular command prompt

Actual behavior

Shift doesn't seem to do anything
