Hello folks,
I have a question about what you guys considers to be the right/expect way.
I
read documentation a bit about INVOCATION_ID and JOURNAL_STREAM and, to
me, it feels like those two variables should not be propagated from DE.
I
mean, if I start KDE Plasma, for example, using systemd, it will
receive an $INVOCATION_ID. Now I start any application by clicking
around, it will inherit and get the very same $INVOCATION_ID. If the
application happen to be konsole or kitty (terminal emulator), it still
inherit the variables, so that any command run inside this terminal
emulator also inherit from it. Feels really weird to me, no?
I
checked a bit what gnome is doing and it confused me even more: all
applications inherit the variables but the 'gnome-terminal' filters out
few variables (including those two) so that commands don't have it: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-terminal/-/blob/master/src/terminal-client-utils.cc#L227
What is your take on this? At which level the filter should occurs if it should even occurs at all?
