Always put internal ("private") arguments at the end, even when
extending/improving. That way you dont have to worry about breaking scripts
because, well, they're internal.
Other than that, I'd say use your own judgement for which arguments to pick.
Something like drawPolygon will always need coordinates but it might not
always need a color or line thickness. Those are the kinds of values you
would request in an options object.
