It's still unclear for me what you mean with "using" keyword arguments.
Isn't it mostly a matter of the users whether they use keywords
arguments or not, or rather a matter of where it is appropriate and
where not? If you're using SQLAlchemy, you aren't using only kwargs
either. For instance, when I define
addresses = Table('addresses', metadata,
Column('address_id', Integer, primary_key = True),
Column('user_id', Integer, ForeignKey("users.user_id")),
Column('street', String(100)),
Column('city', String(80)),
Column('state', String(2)),
Column('zip', String(10))
)
I'm using one kwarg and 15 non-kwargs, i.e. I do not say
Column(name='user_id', type=Integer,
ForeignKey=ForeignKey("users.user_id"))
And conversly, Webware already makes use of kwargs in a lot of places.
The only thing Webware is maybe we can provide better argument names and
more reasonable defaults in a few places.
