I use GVIM without plugins. So if I want to code some Python or JavaScript, I am looking at this:

    function hello(a, b) {
        return a + b;
    }

what the hell are "a" and "b"? numbers? strings? something else? no thank you.

Oh, sure, I completely understand where you're coming from. But if I'm using an untyped language, I'm already having to keep that sort of state in my head regardless.
