I've just noticed that I can't seem to use keyword arguments for xml-rpc requests even though the protocol itself encodes parameter names, types, and values when it sends the xml across the network. This becomes a bit problematic for me because I want to store some XML- RPC method dispatch signatures in a database and can't easily guarantee parameter order when I load it so being able to pass a dictionary of name/value pairs greatly eases the development effort and helps assure correct methods get invoked. Is this a limitation of the SimpleXMLRPCServer, the xmlrpclib.ServerProxy, or something completely different?
