 I'd like to see DIP88 (Named Parameters) revived.  Was this 
 proposal rejected or is it just stale and needs a refresh?  
 Named parameters can be implemented in a library, however, in 
 my opinion they are useful enough to warrant a clean syntax 
 with language support.  I'd be willing to refresh the DIP so 
 long as I know the idea has not already been rejected.


Upon reading the DIP, it reminds me of object destruction.

// extracts success & message from returned type. Could be tuple 
or structure, etc. May even eliminate use of tuples for multiple 
return

auto {success, message} = callVoldermortFunction();

This is concept is used in Kotlin. JavaScript es6 takes it even 
further (function parameters and arguments support object 
destruction)
