This was submitted before and respectfully declined. If you want to use
something like this, you can either use an array based approach or use
func_get_args().

It would be useful to be able to omit function arguments and have the
function still use the defaults even though some to the right were
passed:
e.g.
function fred ($a,$b=1,$c=2,$d=3)
{
echo "a=$a,b=$b,c=$c,d=$d";
}
fred(-1);
fred(-1,,4,5);
