    Description

      QtIFW allows us to supply custom arguments to the installer:

      installer.exe [options] command <key=value>

      End users won't know these parameters exist without external documentation.

      installer.exe --help should be extended to :

      • Minimally, allow us to print custom translatable text. Insert it somewhere in the existing default help message
      • Alternatively, replace installer.value() with something self documenting, like all major CLI parsing libraries do
