If, in the command line processing function that that fork puts in, we extend it to capture any "words": space delimited, allowing for '"'-quoted arguments WITH spaces as necessary, possibly AFTER a "--" (I'll need to check on the symatics for that "end of option arguments delimiter"); and treat/test those "words" as profile names. The fake-autologin bit is my thinking that if I can find a way for Mudlet to behaive as if the matching profile name had the auto-login option set for that instance of the Mudlet application then it would achieve the desired results.
I wasn't sure of the exact URI for github branches, that was more a sort of guess at it; Host: gitghub; Username: Slysven; Repository: Mudlet2 (fork of Chris7!); Branch: mudletDev_versionData. Note that this commit is a rework of my previous patch/suggestion tailored to fit the actual code of the Chris7 mudletDev GH branch. I hope I've taken on board some of the things you've said about that patch (I found a way to make the copyright and version text blend into the background image better on the splash-screen and still leave Thorsten's artwork "artfully" displayed with a bit of text "frobnication", and a --quiet option to turn it all off if the user doesn't want it... 8-) ) Finally, on GH I've drawn together a working merge of my other working branches (I had to do it as a series of sequential merges in pull request order to Chris's mudletDev branches as I couldn't work out how to "octomerge"[?] ) in my mudletDev_proposedUpdates branch.
