In my mind, *anything* other than the straightforward and obvious signature `__getitem__(self, index, **kws)` is a pointless distraction.
We don't need new custom objects to hold keywords. We don't need funny conditional logic about one versus multiple index objects. We don't need some other method that sometimes takes priority. Yes, it's slightly funny that square brackets convert to `index` rather than `*index`, but that ship sailed very long ago, and it's no big deal. There's no problem that needs solving and no need for code churn.
