Attributes: Use constructor parameter per property instead of an array
0%
Description
I saw that with v12 attribute support.
Unfortunately, i find it counterproductive that arrays are used for the parameters here. This breaks type safety, breaks code completion, and can easily lead to overlooked typos.
constructor parameters for each parameter would also make it easier to show the programmers which parameters are required.
PHP 8 offers named parameters, so the argument that you don't have to fill in all parameters with the array, wouldn't count.

doctrine/annotation has named nonstructor option, so the backward compatibility would be given, and the syntax for both annotation and attribute would be almost identical

Both Neos Flow and doctrine ORM use that.
