That was fixed a few days later with the March update: https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/22900

That was a bug and can easily happen in native software too.

And the biggest point is, it was a Chromium bug. Recently the Chromium team also breaked special keys (Home, PgDown, PgUp, End, Insert etc.) over RDP which caused a lot of issues for people using VSCode.

Wow, how do you even break keys over RDP from inside your app?! Do you have a link; I'm curious about the root cause.
Some here may recall that early VS Code had a but where drag to highlight and menu option highlighting on mouse-over was busted in Virtual Box. So crazy and also a chromium bug.

The issue contains a link to the related Chromium bug where I think you can follow up.

I don't know for a fact that it is RDP but it's the common factor among other people with the same issue.

Edit: Ah a bug. I still hate apps that don't use my OS's native UI controls though; even if you can stomach the inconsistencies in look and feel, you DO most definitely lose out on many features that the OS would give you for free.
