Two settings keys are named for WSL inheriting Windows settings and managed-source behaviour.
wslInheritsWindowsSettings and managedSourcesBehavior appear in a key list with no visible consumer.
What's wrong with this entry?
A list of settings keys now names managedSourcesBehavior and wslInheritsWindowsSettings, suggesting Windows settings can be inherited into WSL and that managed sources have configurable behaviour. What consumes the list, whether merge policy, migration or display, is not determined by the list itself. A separate list names enabledPlugins and extraKnownMarketplaces.
["managedSourcesBehavior", "wslInheritsWindowsSettings"]
Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
