Huh? Perl doesn't have true support for this anyway, just a
simpler syntax for hashrefs. If you want Perlish named params
this is 100% identical to doing
foo(array('id' => 42, 'name' => 'foo'));

Well, this idea I think comes from Python. Last time I checked they
had these
and as far as I remember this have been brought 2 times. The first
time before
5.0 and has been rescheduled for 6.0 :)

I'm not against named parameters. Python's support for them is nice
as well. But Perl doesn't support named parameters any different
than can be done currently in PHP.
