Well, that name assumes we are converting an object into a list which
in reality an array.  Besides that calling parameters a list reminds
me Perl too much.  Now I understand how Matju felt in the original
post. ;-)

How about to_values?  It's noun; plurality indicates it's a collection
of values (which often represented by an array).  to_args comes next
in my preference list.
