Version `Influx CLI 2.6.1 (git: 61c5b4d) build_date: 2022-12-29T15:41:09Z`

Command to call: `influx v1 shell -t `
Doing this in a Ubuntu 22 shell under the Windows Subsystem for Linux.

The tooltips are placing itself on top of what I am writing and hiding the results.

Please also provide a fix to disable those tooltips.

thx

Research direction

Reproduce the problem with `influx v1 shell -t ` in an Ubuntu shell under WSL, using the reported Influx CLI 2.6.1 context. Then trace the client tooltip behavior from that command entry point; done means tooltips no longer hide typed input or results and can be disabled.
