Well, to follow up to myself, I would have to say that wouldn't make a
whole lot of sense. initialize would have to be some kind of "special"
method to act like that, much more so than it is now.

I've solved my "problem", such as it was, by writing a little Vim script
(using Ruby!) that, when called on a line like "A b c", builds a 
	class A
		def initialize(b, c)
			@b = b
			@c = c
		end
	end
-type skeleton out of it. It was fun, too.
