Hi,
I feel that launching a flatpak app from command line a bit

from rpm packages. It's really different to type:
$firefox
or
$flatpak run org.mozilla.Firefox
Can you pass command line arguments like this ?
For example inkscape
can be used not only as a GUI app, but also from the command line to
convert SVG files to PNG and other things. So it would be good if
flatpack can also support that.
