That's not the behavior I see, with both stable and dev. The interpreter
starts in the GUI startup directory. Example:

    $ grep octave_startup_dir ~/.config/octave/qt-settings
    octave_startup_dir=/home
    $ pwd
    /tmp
    $ octave-5.0.0 -q --norc --no-gui
    octave:1> pwd
    ans = /home
    octave:2>
