Ok, time to revisit the classics then ;)  http://www.gigamonkeys.com/book/functions.html#keyword-parameters

That would give us things like this:  SELECT foo(1, :name 'bar', :quantity 10);

As colon character does not appear in the list of allowed characters
for the CREATE OPERATOR, it seems it could be valid.  http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.3/interactive/sql-
createoperator.html
