Public bug reported:

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"
