Looks good.
A classic problem we have had is with boolean parameters, which are hard
to read at call sites. We currently solve that by turning them into enum
or flag parameters, but named parameters would be a lighter-weight
alternative. However, it would be great to be able to ensure at the
language level that certain boolean parameters are passed as named
parameters.
FWIW I have thought about adding a way to require the usage of names for
some arguments with this specific use case in mind, but I've been
ignoring it for the initial version of the proposal. It might be
something that we can add in when we have a real proposal for the committee.
