Hey Guilliam,
adding a special character like * or ? before the function name is
not going to work.
It might look good for *f() but it has the same issues as casting.
You should be able to have with the current version a code like
$actionGenerator->getDriveAction()('home', ?)
You can't really put the * or ? before the function name here.
Maybe having it just before the parenthesis would work.

Alex
