As this is intended to be a public property, I assume there should be a CSR and some consistent name, perhaps with `win-` prefix - I assume we will need an additional similar property for a verb label displayed in a context menu. `pass-all-args` was intended only as a working title.

Can we change the existing default behaviour? Should we? It won't break existing usage, but is it actually always desired to support passing arbitrary arguments from the desktop shortcut to the target java app? I myself cannot answer any of these questions.
