But, I don't see a lot of keyword-only parameters being added to stdlib code. Is there some position we've taken on this? Barring someone saying "stdlib APIs shouldn't contain keyword-only params", I'm inclined to make numericowner keyword-only.

os.path and shutil make extensive use of keyword-only params.
