( parameter := value ) notation is not only consistent with what is used

EXEC dbo.GetItemPrice @ItemCode = 'GXKP', @PriceLevel = 5
Since former SQL Server / Sybase apps are the most likely to use named
parameter notation in PostgreSQL, having a syntax which could be ported
using only "sed" would be nice.
Once you solve the problem of finding the '='s in the source, replacing
them is exactly the same effort regardless of what you replace them with.
