In some recent Slurm versions, the Slurm runtime is inserting custom arguments to the PRRTE launcher's srun cmd line without the user being aware of it. In many cases, this may not be a problem - but in some cases (where the user or the system admin needs/wants particular cmd line arguments used) this can cause problems as it happens silently, without the user being aware of it.
Make this visible when it happens, and provide a mechanism by which the user/admin can override it. Provide a fairly long help message explaining what happened and offering advice on resolution, along with a param for disabling the warning. Add a param for overriding the "args" param if necessary, along with a caution as to possible consequences.
