I don't like it. Empty is how it's done on any language which allows this
sort of thing, it's the most intuitive and I don't see anything wrong with
it.

If you need this, it probably means that your priorities are not set well
in the function. And if you have a function that has multiple optional
parameters in which the order does not matter, you don't want multiple
optional parameters, you want one optional array, which would contain
whatever it is that you want.

Language constructs and syntax helpers aren't a substitute for well-written
code and documentation.
