Looks like `www/falkon' happily accepts any option (tried with "falkon
--nonexistent-foo-bar-42" :-) but for the record, I do have WebEngine backend
selected in the ~/.config/otter/otter.conf:

  [Backends]
  Web=qtwebengine

It does not seem to work with Otter:

  $ otter-browser --qt-flag disable-gpu 
  Otter: Unknown option 'qt-flag'.

Initially I was not sure whether it appies to an earlier version and thus
reopen would make sense, but now I see that the port was updated to current
version (1.0.81) in the earlier PR bug #239203, so the problem I'm seeing is
related to this PR and current version, reopening.
