libmirserver parses arguments and fails if it's not something it
In principle I don't think it is a good idea to ignore unrecognised
arguments on the command line - that only leads to confusion when users
misspell something. Having two separate parts of the program parsing
them is the real problem Mir was coded on the misguided assumption that
boost.Options was

Looks like unity-mir would really need to re-implement
mir::options::ProgramOption and pass our own version back in an
overridden version of the_options().
ProgramOption actually makes the call to parse_command_line()
internally, its variable_maps instance that holds all the parsed options
is
Oh, but I guess we can't do that either, because parse_arguments() is
only in mir::options::ProgramOption rather than mir::options::Option.
So it's not something we could pass back with an overridden
parse_arguments().
So we'd have to override both the_options() and parse_options(),

Nope... argv and argc are private. I'm beginning to think this needs
to be solved at the Mir level.

Well I'd request by default that Mir, as a library, only listens for the
command line arguments it recognises, and ignores all others. Qt are GTK
libraries which do this.
While the Mir default behaviour can be overridden by unity-mir, I think
it makes more sense for the change to be in Mir
Existing Mir code uses mir::report_exception() to print exceptions out
nicely.
Discussed with Michał, the request on Mir is that it can ignore options
it doesn't understand so Qt can be initialised with the option list
after Mir has scanned it.

This should be possible to solve since Mir revision 1069.
You can override DefaultServerConfiguration::parse_options() and parse
the arguments yourself without throwing an exception. You would need to
copy some code from src/server/default_server_configuration.cpp to do
this and keep the
