Even something as simple as:

procedure foo(opt object n)

and if n was not supplied, n defaulting to NULL would be a huge step.

function round(sequence items, opt object n)
  if n = NULL then n = 1 end if
  ... code for round_precision ...
end function

That's not as good as function round(sequence items, integer precision=1) but,
it's a huge step above what we have now and could be maintained later once an
assignment would be possible.

How hard is something like that?
