I agree Flag is a bit ugly to use, but IIUC this proposal does
not enforce the use of a named argument, it's optional. Flag does
call site name enforcement.
Also, named template arguments is an interesting idea, but they
don't seem to be so useful as named function arguments. Boolean
function arguments are pretty common, but I'm not sure templates
have an equivalent compelling example. They could be left out at
first perhaps.
