I can ask for a slurpy hash of named arguments with '*%args', or a slurpy array of non-named arguments with '*@args', but I want an ordered list of Pairs (specified with 'name => value'). Is there a good way to get that? 
class testing {
    method newhash(*%args) {
        for %args.kv -> $k, $v {
            say "Hash Key $k => Value $v";
        }
    }
    method newarray(*@args) {
        for @args -> $k, $v {
            say "Array Key $k => Value $v";
        }
    }
}

my $x = testing.newhash(a => 1, b => 2);   # Messes with specified ord
+er

my $y = testing.newarray(c => 3, d => 4);  # Looks good, but doesn't w
+ork

my $z = testing.newarray('e', 5, 'f', 6);  # Works, but ugly
