 Is there really no way just to run FG without having _no_ garbage
 written out to any files ?

It's a bug, will take a look now.

Just tested this and it seems to work for me (setting exactly that argument - 
there's also explicit options: --disable-save-on-exit and --enable-save-on-exit)

Where abouts did you specify the option? In a config file or on the command 
line? I made some changes to config file handling back in the autumn, but I've 
tested setting custom properties via those and it works in the general case.

What value do you see for the property in the inspector?
