Describe the bug
I had a few scripting scenarios where I just needed to communicate with the printer by serial, or to debug it. For this reason I didn't want any UI, so I tried to use "--test -s", but it still shows the LCD emulation.
Likewise, a similar scenario is "--test --gdb", where I might be scripting gdb and thus have no need for the UI as well.
Looks like the only scenario where --test hides the UI at the moment is "--test --script".
To Reproduce
Start with "--test -s" or "--test --gdb".
Expected behavior
No extra windows being shown in these scenarios.
I almost think --test should refuse to operate if not given a compatible option (--script, -s, --gdb, or something that gives the user a way to control the board without the lcd).

The "no graphics" part of that is probably wrong now as I believe in some cases we use --test with graphics for the automated testing components that take screenshots to verify the GL behaviour.
I think what you're looking for that is more suitable to your use case is also using -g none as an argument. That should suppress all graphics.
Oh, well then, works good enough for me using --test in combination with -g none :)
Maybe it just needs a better description, or yeah removing the mention completely, so that graphics control is explicitly handled via -g.
On the other side, is there an explicit way to request the "2D ui only" via -g? I know it's default, but I think it should be listed as an explicit choice.
