Downstream bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=870621

"Description of problem:
Specifiing command (in terminal launcher):
 "exo-open --launch TerminalEmulator --tab --tab --tab"

result in error:

exo-helper: Unknown option --tab --tab --tab.
Type 'exo-helper --help' for usage.

although right action should be start preferred terminal app with "--tab --tab --tab" as its parameters."
