Does anybody want named parameters?
These are handy as template functions (like in Smarty), and these are
achievable since the oldest PHP by using associative arrays. It's
purely syntactic sugar, but it's a very convenient thing I guess (and
promotes long, long lists of parameters as well ;-)
This was suggested before, and declined. Please search the archives.

As far as I remember this was brought to the list first by Thies and later
by me, back in the days when PHP 5 was still on the design table. It was said
that it is so late, and should wait for PHP 6 :) . PHP 5 took 4 years after PHP
4.
So PHP 6 may take another 5 years after PHP 5 -> 2009 :).
