The problem is,that it would be cooler to do that in a gui.
And another problem is,that you can't enable/disable multiple commands for
multiple .desktop files at once.
Also,if you make a script that automatically enables commands for all .desktop
files globally,it would be annoying to disable that for one program and it
would be faster if you could do that with switches in properties.

If you mean Lutris etc.,those programs aren't grat,you have to add every
program yourself and if you make a shortcut for the app menu,then you have to
replace the normal one (or have two for every program) and select a theme.
That takes too much time

What do you mean by "problem of launching games in game mode"?
But that was only an example,but the feature request from me would also be
useful for commands like "mangohud" or the env var "ENABLE_VKBASALT=1".

I already did this for Lutris and gamehub,but they don't say anything after 5
months to my feature requests and it would be much better to have the feature
request I mean here in kde instead of different programs.
