If we can, we should rejig the code to avoid declaring unused arguments and variables; if we can't, we can use G_GNUC_UNUSED to eliminate the warning.

Actually, the compiler warnings situation is not nice. We're currently using warning_level=2 but:

  • we should really use warning_level=3
  • we should add more warnings to the Meson baseline

xdg-desktop-portal-gtk is a security boundary, and we should be more careful with the code we're shipping.

My personal opinion is -pedantic contains a lot of pointless annoyances and just including specific warnings has better results.

I agree about pedantic, so even with warning_level=3 I'd drop it with additional compiler warnings; the other option is to add a bunch of warnings ourselves on top of warning_level=2.

Just to clarify, warning_level=3 only adds -Wpedantic:

The title of the access dialog should not be used as the format string,
otherwise we open ourselves to specially crafted payloads making a mess.

build: Add more warnings

Outside of Meson's default warnings, we really need to step up our
coverage.
