I am not at all convinced about the proposed feature, but is that really a
syntax we would use for function calls with named parameters?
Random googling shows me that Oracle appears to use a syntax like
name => value
This is actually a feature that I would like to see implemented soonish, so if
anyone has input on the possible syntax consequences, please comment.
