Cute, indeed. That decorator implementation is not as flexible as the * which can go after positional parameters, but of course that is easy to tweak. However the part I didn't bring up as a reason to prefer explicit syntax for required-as-keyword is performance. I suspect syntactic support will be faster than **kw.pop; I'm almost certain it's faster than decorator gimmicks. I'm not certain at all that it's a concern either way.
