Syntactic sugar to encourage use of named arguments

If you Ctrl+Click the parameter name, it goes to the definition. How can we navigate to the variable declaration?

@jagerber

The upshot is the current behavior (in pycharm) jumps to declaration of the parameter in the function signature if the cursor is in front of the equals sign and it jumps to the last modification of the variable if the cursor is after the equals sign.

Both describe the same behavior.

One possible solution is to make the implicit variable visible when clicking Ctrl and hovering its corresponding parameter, allowing you to click it and go to its declaration (last modification).

But I am not a fan of this because it is not obvious without hovering over the parameter. The hidden variable may be shown over the next parameter, creating a mess (one pixel away, and you go to the next parameter definition).

All of this sounds like: We were better off when things were worse.
