I really *really* don't like this. It's ugly and verbose, and a pathetic
work around for the lack of named parameters. Either support named
parameters or not, don't have an ugly half-baked work-around.

Ugly is in the eye of the beholder, but I fail to see how the added
punctuation makes Flag!"param".yes significantly more verbose than param
: true.
The problem that named parameters are still optional remains. Or we need
to add one extra language feature to specify required named parameters.
