What do you mean? Do you mean that Matthias Walter's
implementation is very far from being a good enough implementation of named
arguments? :-)
(I have not said that named arguments are necessary. I have said that I
think it's not probable that a library implementation of them will be
good enough.)

I have to agree that a library implementation cannot provide what the
language would be able to here. Just the requirement that functions with
named arguments must be templatized makes the strategy more or less
unusable for class hierarchies.
