Bug description:Implement "default" as a possible function/method argument
value in calls
Description:
------------
I think it would be useful if we could use the "default" keyword when
passing parameters to a method/function so that the value for the parameter
for which "default" is passed automatically takes the defined default
value, without need of knowing it.
Test script:
---------------
For example, consider this:
function justToTest($a = 10, $b = 0) {
var_dump($a, $b);
}
justToTest();
justToTest(5);
justToTest(default, 5);
Expected result:
----------------
The first call should show
int 10
int 0
The second call should show
int 5
int 0
The third call should show
int 10
int 5
