Description of the new feature/enhancement

WSL + Ubuntu (+ an X server) is a light and awesome replacement to running Ubuntu inside a virtual machine (e.g. VirtualBox). Linux users also need a terminal that will mimic what they have been using for years (25 years in my case) in the way of selecting, copying and pasting text

I'm currently using PuTTY and WSLtty to achieve this goal and I thought I would give the Windows terminal a try, because it looks quite promising. Unfortunately:

• there is no GUI yet for easily changing the options/settings. I understand this is a work in progress and I could edit the required json file
• there does not seem to be a way (yet) to mimic all the usual (and I'd say de facto standard for some people, after so many years) xterm select/copy/paste behavior. I have checked the documentation and read the Feature Request - X like copy / paste #1332 Feature: add copy on select (per Unix terminals)  #524 and Feature Request: PuTTY style text selection #1496 issues that seemed to address this problem, and were possibly closed a bit hastily

The PuTTY Selection settings screenshot below shows the xterm setting I'm using. It would be useful for a lot of people if there was a way to easily activate xterm-style behavior in the Windows terminal. Maybe this is already possible, but I have checked several sections of the Terminal documentation (tips and tricks, tutorials, Customize settings, ...) without any success

The WSLtty Selection and Mouse settings screenshots show similar settings
