probably, but that doesn't give me old funcarg factory functions.

I have to admit that I didn't read the proposals and didn't follow the
discussion closely. Calling the thing factory might be too broad. If
pytest.funcarg does make sense (and you said it does), I'm now +2 for
it. 

And since it looks like this should just be a shorter name for
funcargfactory, I think 'funcarg' carries more meaning.
 
With my previous vote that makes it +3 :)
