Bug ID: 514090
Summary: Setting multiple hotkeys for the same script with
different arguments doesn't work but GUI shows as if
it did.

SUMMARY
Adding a script in hotkeys and setting a hotkey for it works. Adding the same
script with different arguments and setting a hotkey displays correctly, but
the hotkey is never set/reassigned.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a simple executable script that acts differently depending on
arguments passed. Example:
#!/bin/bash
$1 &
2. Go to Settings, Hotkeys, Add New, add your script with an argument.
Example:
~/.local/bin/example.sh kate
3. Add a hotkey to the script and Apply. This works, pressing the hotkey opens
Kate.
4. Add New, add your script again, with a different arguement. Example:
~/.local/bin/example.sh konsole
5. Add a hotkey to the second script and Apply.
OBSERVED RESULT
If you add a new hotkey to the second script, it does nothing, as the hotkey
was never really assigned, despite the GUI displaying the hotkey as set.
Using an already assigned hotkey, eg. Meta+E will give you the "do you really
want to reassign" prompt. Pressing OK will remove the hotkey from it's previous
location and add it to your script (visually).
The hotkey is in reality still bound to the old function, so Meta+E will still
open dolphin for example.
EXPECTED RESULT
The hotkey is actually assigned to the script, as the GUI would lead you to
believe.
WORKAROUND
Use different scripts instead of the same script with arguments
