Short description of the issue/suggestion:

add ability to add (default) Arguments to JavaX

like

#if ($info.appArgs)
    <key>Arguments</key>
    <string>${info.appArgs}</string>
#end

and then

<configuration>
<appArgs>--withgui</appArgs>
</configuration>

in https://github.com/tofi86/universalJavaApplicationStub this was resolved by JVMArguments

at this moment, i duplicated the Info.plist.vtl for only 2 lines of code..

What is the motivation / use case for changing the behavior? in my case, my java application requires a argument to run in gui mode on macOS

Hi @red171! Great, I take note of your suggestion ... keep in mind that this feature should also be extended to Windows and Linux, but I'm sure it can be done. Thanks!!
