If you propose this as a feature, I will +1 it.  Also I have some questions about it which probably should not pollute the current feature request.

Feature #8563: Instance variable arguments

Often times, people want to assign given arguments to instance variables, especially inside the method `initialize`:

    def initialize foo, bar, buz
      @foo, @bar, @buz = foo, bar, buz
      ...
    end

I propose to let method definition take instance variables as arguments so that:

    def initialize @foo, @bar, @buz
      ...
    end

would be equivalent as above.
