How about adding 'kind' and keeping 'is_*' attributes,
but making them read-only dynamic properties, i.e.:
class Parameter:

@property
def is_vararg(self):
return self.kind == 'vararg'
...
?
Seems a bit bloatly to me. (One way to do it.)
Agreed with Benjamin.
Also, the "is_*" attributes are misleading: it looks like they are
orthogonal but only one of them can be true at any time.
This is no different from what we have with strings now:
--> 'aA'.islower()
False
--> 'aA'.isupper()
False
--> 'a'.islower()
True
--> 'A'.isupper()
True
We know that a string cannot be both all-upper and all-lower at the same
time; likewise we know a variable cannot be both positional and kwargs.
