Research direction

Read the linked Python 3.6 What's New entry and PEP 468 first to understand the required keyword-argument ordering behavior. Then locate IronPython's handling of function calls and **kwargs; done means the implementation preserves the specified order, with relevant behavior covered by tests if the project has them.
