[Bug 521281] [NEW] Option to configure location of saved settings

[Stephen Phillips]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-rdp

Gnome-RDP does not allow for multiple configurations.  In the current
version, the settings are saved in a Sqlite database file named .gnome-
rdp.db.  The experimental branch stores them in ~/.config/GnomeRDP.  No
options exist to change this.

Scenario:  I have a tested version of Gnome-RDP that I want to use
everyday for work.  But, I also want to be able to tinker in the source
code with out having to keep backing up and restoring my everyday
connections and settings.

I made a change in the code with the experimental branch to add a
feature that would work for me.  Is this something that could be
incorporated?

I added two options to the startup options.  "--database-path" allows
the user to configure where the old sqllite database exists.  The "--
configpath" or "-c" option allows the user to override the location
where the settings are stored.

Please let me know if I can do anything else to help with this.  Please
also let me know if this is the wrong place to submit this.  I looked on
SourceForge, and I couldn't find a place to put the patch.
