--- Comment #5 from TraceyC <kdebugs at tlcnet.info> ---
I found this bug looking to see why a bunch of profiles with no names were
appearing in Konsole after launching it from command line. The undesired
behavior isn't just triggered by --workdir. It is also triggered when using
command line to open a new tab and run a command. There may be other triggers,
but I haven't investigated.

I wanted to add a related UI bug that I have observed.

## Steps to reproduce
1. Launch Konsole from command line. Pass a shell command. 
  Which shell is irrelevant, this happens for me with bash, zsh and fish.
  The command doesn't seem to matter. 
e.g.
`konsole --new-tab -e bash -c 'ls -la ~/some_directory; cd  ~/Nextcloud/Notes/;
bash'`

## Additional observations
I see the problems outlined in the original writeup with the current profile
having no name. Additionally, I see a new profile with a blank name in Settings
- Switch Profile. These nameless entries also appear when clicking and holding
the New Tab  icon. 

A new blank entry is added every time a command like the above is run,
resulting in multiple blank entries throughout the day.
These entries don't go away until Konsole is restarted. 

I've attached screenshots of the blank entries in the UI.
