Taking into account that it is not limiting other languages, but  
enabling one, and that underscores are usually allowed in variable  
names, while the minus (-) sign isn't, I think it should be REQUIRED  
that any named parameter be compatible with the even more restrictive  
general expression [A-Za-z][A-Za-z0-9_]*, which is compatible with the  
Python definition, and with variable names in more languages. I think  
the name parameters in SAMP should not start with an underscore,  
that's why it is not included either in the first character of the  
regexp.
