Description

Currently the bot resets the cli flags when pressing the rerender button and automagically rerender when pressing the change settings button which makes it pretty difficult to test scenes which actually use command line flags because you have to retype them everytime you want to render something.

Research direction

Start by tracing the rerender and change-settings button handlers, then identify where the current CLI flags are stored and reset. Done means rerender preserves the previously passed flags and changing settings does not automatically trigger a render; manually test both button flows with a scene that uses CLI flags.
