The implementation of this function is already so obscure that using keywords should not be a problem.

OTOH, the reorder function in RestrictedPython was ported from a version originally designed for doing ordered select lists in DTML:

$ cvs log lib/python/DocumentTemplate/DT_Util.py ... revision 1.52 date: 1999/03/22 17:28:37; author: jim; state: Exp; lines: +31 -2 Added a new "builtin" function reorder:

reorder(s, [with, without]]) --

  Reorder the items in s according to the order given in with
  and with items mentioned in without removed.  Items from s
  not mentioned in with are removed.

  s, with, and without are all either sequences if strings
  or sequences of key-value tuples, with ordering done on the
  keys.

This function is useful for constructing ordered select lists. ...

The only use of the method in Zope's own DTML is in the addZClass.dtml template. I'm willing to bet that nobody who is still using it would be surprised if they had to recode it when upgrading to a recent Zope, so maybe we can just change the trunk without worrying about it.
