I know what it means in function definitions, but somehow we seem to

Have I missed something?
Someone was proposing using '*' to mean "the following are keyword
parameters, take their values from variables of the same name", citing
the use of '*' in function definitions as looking nice and being obvious
in meaning. I was disputing both points. We do seem to have got
off-track somewhat ;-)
