I am not at all convinced about the proposed feature, but is that really a 
syntax we would use for function calls with named parameters?

Random googling shows me that Oracle appears to use a syntax like

    name => value

This is actually a feature that I would like to see implemented soonish, so if 
anyone has input on the possible syntax consequences, please comment.
