patch

While you're at it, you should add g_object_unref(program) after gtk_main() before the end of main(), and g_strfreev the remaining_args :)

"context = g_option_context_new ("");", shouldn't a comment be used?

"description = g_strdup_printf ("- %s", _("Directly edit your entire configuration database"));
context = g_option_context_new (description);
g_free (description);"

if you want to use the Comment= from the .desktop translated

I also made a patch(see #320390). which is best? :)
I like to introduce --key foo
so we can add extra options in the future 

Marking needs-work based on Christian's comments.

Thanks for the patch. I applied a mix of them.
