I'd rather have no reordering and allow hybrid call. Named argument is
useful for specifying the nature of an argument. If the type is clear
for all but one argument, the rest is just noisy redundant info.
fun(bool, bool, bool, bool, bool...)
Isn't the type clear for every argument here?
e.g.
MoveWindow(hWnd, loc.x, loc.y, myWin.width, myWin.height,
bRepaint:true);
is no worse than
MoveWindow(hWnd:hWnd, X:loc.x, Y:loc.y,
nWidth:myWin.width, nHeight:myWin.height, bRepaint:true);
Reordering is important an example:
fun(int a, int b=2, int c=3)
If you want to name c but not b what are you going to do?
Named arguments isn't something to save typing.
Also the first version of the MoveWindow indeed worse than the second,
which again i think requires no explanation.
