Its a very unfortunate limitation in Java's reflection API that

provides a pluggable parameter name resolver, with a very simple

public interface ParameterNameResolver

String[] getParameterNames(Constructor< ? > constructor) throws
ReflectionException;
String[] getParameterNames(Method method) throws
ReflectionException;
}
I like the idea of introducing an interface for parameter name resolution.
The default and simple implementation would be the enumerated names.
Other implementations could be based on byte code enhancing (like
mentioned here)
or a meta model created by an annotation processor (like Kevin suggested
in HV-409).
