Cases were made for both, and it was pointed out that if we get named arguments, the argument spread operator will need to work the same way as whatever is decided for arrays. So the current approach is to get integer keys working first, using the same behaviour as for parameters, and then revisit string keys later. Regards, -- Rowan Collins [IMSoP]
