Bug Description
To reproduce this issue run:
qterminal -e sh -c "vi /etc/passwd"
This should open /etc/passwd in the vi editor. But instead it runs vi without any argument:
$ qterminal -e sh -c "vi /etc/passwd"
[...]
Shell program: "sh -c vi /etc/passwd"
("sh", "-c", "vi", "/etc/passwd")
[...]
Compare this to other terminal emulators that x-terminal-emulator may point to:
konsole -e sh -c "vi /etc/passwd"
lxterm -e sh -c "vi /etc/passwd"
xterm -e sh -c "vi /etc/passwd"
