OK, let's leave it for now, then.

Yeah, it's rather far-reaching, which is why I didn't do a
mass-conversion when I introduced "args" in c460c0ecdc (run-command:
store an optional argv_array, 2014-05-15). My plan was to clean up spots
over time as we touched them, but of course that's quite a slow process.

Mostly I just didn't want to see any sites going the _other_ direction,
as in your original version of the series. :)

I'm quite happy with what you ended up with here.
