When running AppLauncher with no ini settings, the duration of the splashscreen is too short to really see it.
It should be increased for at least a couple hundreds of milliseconds (800 msecs) by default.
I believe the splashscreen behavior could be refined:
show up at the same time as the application is launched (currently the application is launched 50ms after the splash screen is shown)
hide the splash screen not earlier than 800msecs (default setting) and wait at least for the application to be launched (QProcess returning something).
