What's Wrong?

When using Claude via SSH (Ubuntu 24.04) session on Windows, the auto-complete, auto-text, ghost text - not sure what the official name is, only goes away if I type and backspace.

Typing over it just jumbles your text display since it doesn't automatically go away See attached screenshot.

What Should Happen?

Good question - previous UI experience says it should go away as soon as I start typing, or if I hit ESC.
