Comment (by eriktorbjorn):

 Looks like it may be by design. It calls getExtraGuiOptions(), which
 ''does'' take a target name as input. But when called from base/main.cpp,
 it always passes an empty String because:

 {{{
 // Set default values for all of the custom engine options
 // Apparently some engines query them in their constructor, thus we
 // need to set this up before instance creation.
 }}}

 So i guess the SCI engine has to ensure that the game-specific settings
 are harmless for other games.
