I agree that the use of := should be enforced. I would also like to be
able to use _ in names.
However: The parser should allow spaces after the $: in block
arguments. This is essentially the same syntax as for keyword method
declarations without a keyword and there you also allow arbitrary
spaces after the colon (normally you even put them there). So I
understand when people write block arguments the same way as they do
for keyword method declarations:
to: stop by: step
...
[ : stop : step | ... ]

All Smalltalk allow spaces after the $: in blocks. Disallowing this
makes porting unnecessary hard.
