Pass argument(s) to World constructor

Would it be safe to run cucumber-js with custom cli argument(s) and handle those in World constructor?

Example:

#cucumber-js --tag @reboot --target 192.168.1.10

So far it works but is that intentionally or is it a side effect?

I would like to launch the browser at an environment specific URL. So I was thinking of running my tests using the following command from the root directory where a features folder is located:

cucumber-js envName=DEV

But I run into the following error:

`Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, lstat 'C:\Workspace\parent\child\envName=DEV

I understand there might be a need to add --param|--params option to support this in windows through this open issue. But I was more curious of why not instead let custom parameters pass through so that custom code can be written to process these custom parameters. An example of custom code would be using nodejs’s process.argv array.
