I approve; perhaps we should ask some folks from the originating issue to pop in?

I like this. I'm used to using CTRL sequences with other key combos so this makes a bunch of sense to me.

Definitely a better change! 👍

But perhaps a better modifier key should be the windows key with some additional key?

This would also make the terminal better coupled with Windows; in my opinion.

[DHowett-MSFT]

Alas! The Windows key is for the exclusive use of Windows' shell. Win+W, Win+T, Win+Tab, Win+D all do things and they're intercepted before we get a chance to say "no!".

Ah, I see.

Just for discoverability/history:
The changes to the default shortcuts introduced a regression on first time installed v0.3.2142.0 discussed in issue 521, here the eureka by lhecker, and PR'ed by @lhecker in #2235. Workaround until #2235 is accepted/released - change your Ctrl+Alt+[0-9] shortcuts in profiles.json to something not using a Ctrl+Alt combination.
