Bug Description

The issue happens on trusty. If you run "unity-control-center credentials application=shotwell", the online account dialog without any visible app specific selection.

Should it open on the "add" page with the filter set on the application specified?

Note that it could be an issue in u-c-c and how it calls the panel as well

It looks like our plugin is "constructed" and *then* the "argv" property is set. Our code assumes that this is a construct property.
I'm not sure whether this assumption is correct, but since this used to work, it's very likely that something changed in u-c-c.
