Description
`Alt-w` (copy) doesn't work in `Emacs`; the default shortcut conflicts, making `Emacs` unusable in `WindTerm`. Since `Emacs` is a classic and very popular editor, `WindTerm` should change its `alt-w` shortcut prefix to something else.

Research direction
No file or test is named. Start by locating WindTerm's keyboard shortcut handling for Alt-W and reproduce the conflict with Emacs; done means Emacs Alt-W copies normally while WindTerm retains a working, non-conflicting shortcut.
