Description

I kickstarted a command controller and added one command action with one optional argument:

[...]

class TestCommandController extends \TYPO3\FLOW3\MVC\Controller\CommandController {

    /**
     * Render the documentation for a specific package.
     * 
     * @param string $packageKey The unique package key
     * @return void
     */
    public function renderCommand($packageKey = NULL) {
    echo 'THIS IS '.$packageKey; 
        exit;
    }

If I start the controller with:

./flow3 test:render TYPO3.TheDefinitiveGuideToFLOW3

it outputs:

THIS IS

If I make the argument $packageKey required everything works fine and de render command outputs:

THIS IS TYPO3.TheDefinitiveGuideToFLOW3

Bug or feature?

Feature. The simple rule is: optional arguments must always be named.

The reason is that FLOW3 otherwise would not be able to distinguish between options and unnamed required arguments or exceeding arguments.
