- I already said I wouldn't advocate this approach if it could be
avoided.
- There is nothing "improper" or "hack"-like about using a feature
simply because you apparently didn't know about it.
- The difference would be if he already has published package specs
that use parameters with such names, and referenced them in code. This
approach will allow him to change only the internals of the package
body.
