[SNIP] Let's consider replacement of 'Parameter.is*' set of attributes with a single 'Parameter.kind' attribute, which will have the following possible values: 'positional', 'vararg', 'keyword-only', 'varkwarg'. (I think 'positional' is more intuitive than 'index'?)

+1 if this change is made. How about adding 'kind' and keeping 'is*' attributes, but making them read-only dynamic properties, i.e.: class Parameter: ... @property def isvararg(self): return self.kind == 'vararg' ... ?

Seems a bit bloatly to me. (One way to do it.)
