Each app can, by inspecting command-line args and running things from (system repl repl). Strictly speaking this arg is no more "dangerous" to an app than `-e'; simply more convenient. It is not an argument to all guile-using programs, by the way, only to Guile itself. If you have a script, all args after the script name are given to the app, not to Guile.
