I think it would be important to consider not always enabling 
named arguments, either by opting in or out of the new feature. 
It could adequately address concerns about parameter names being 
part of the API. For example, I don't think it'd be crazy to 
limit this to only parameters with default arguments.

In Python one can tell the language that certain parameters are 
positional-only:
