This works very well, thanks. However, this behaviour kind of violates
what I expect from a Python function: On the one hand, the argument is
required (as expected with a positional argument) but on the other
hand I have to use it like a keyword argument. This leaves a bitter
taste to me, as I will always have to document this behaviour.

Regards,
Matthias
