password via command-line

Progman opened the ticket and wrote:

Its possible to join a server direct via the command-line option -n (-n [ip:port# player] = Start networkgame), but it is not possible to enter a password for the given server. There should be an option like "-p" to enter the password or extend the -n so it can hold a password for the server.
