Summary: keywords in keyword_arguments not possible

Initial Comment:
Currently it is not possible to use keywords in
expressions of the type "keyword_arguments". Example:

d  = {'fi': 1, 'if': 1}

d.update(fi = 2) # ok
d.update(if = 2) # error

If possible, this restriction should be removed.

It's possible, but hard to implement and unwise in any case.
