Comment (by fireproofsocks):

 My recommendation here is to allow parameter names to use anything that's
 a viable PHP variable name.  That just makes sense in this case, similar
 to using extract().  From the PHP docs:

 "A valid variable name starts with a letter or underscore, followed by any
 number of letters, numbers, or underscores. As a regular expression, it
 would be expressed thus: '[a-zA-Z_\x7f-\xff][a-zA-Z0-9_\x7f-\xff]*'"
