I've been looking (and coded) a little bit on named function calls. Calls
on the form:
 foo (x => 13, y => 42)

Implementing this means that the symbol => no longer can be defined by the
user as an operator. It's not used as default in pg, but I just want to 
tell you up front in case you don't like that.

It's specified as => in the todo, and it's the symbol used by oracle in 
their pl/sql so I hope it's okay that I steal that symbol?
