FWIW, I was sort-of hoping it would be. If so, CMakeParseArguments.cmake can be left with a simple stub to call the new version.

As a bonus, the new version could itself take named arguments instead of positional with a flag whether or not to skip empty (default = keep) with the compatibility wrapper instead specifying to skip, and no policy would be needed (if you want the new behavior, just use parse_arguments).
