Accesibility Issue: VSCode Notebook Plugin doesn't allow me to select the text that I'm reading.

Describe the bug

When using the ".NET Interactive Notebooks" plugin in VS Code, I cannot select text from markdown sections while I am reading them (like you can in any other program or web page). -- Instead it acts like it's trying to drag an image of the text somewhere. -- This is not intuitive behavior, and it's not the behavior of other Notebook readers such as Jupyter Notebooks.

I believe this is a major accessibility issue because, for people like me who have Visual Processing Disorders, this makes it hard to follow along with the text while I am reading it.

Please complete the following:

Which version of .NET Interactive are you using? (In a notebook, run the #!about magic command. ):

Version: 1.0.331401+f9a0736070089a9e182a96afc9c0142d2b81e5f5
