The `Sequence.split` methods both have a `maxSplits: Int = Int.max` parameter, but this parameter is unlabelled (i.e. a local-only name) in one of the methods. This is more obvious when looking at the documentation [1], which doesn't follow the Swift convention for local/external parameter names.

Also, the naming convention proposed by David Owens II in the "named parameters" thread [2] would allow for default parameter values to be added later. For example, see the `SequenceType.joinWithSeparator` methods.
