This is broken as it stands, wrt parameters, and possibly inputs.
1) We've lost the ability to make parameters obligatory/optional,
which I'm sure we agreed on ages ago -- clearly this is only
allowed when declaring a parameter;
2) It's incoherent to use a wildcard (* (or *:x, or x:* for
parameters) as the name of an actual input or parameter. Those
only make sense as part of signatures, that is, when the
input/parameter is being declared. . .
