IMHO, this should be reverted. The API currently doesn't treat these
arguments differently, so they should really be labeled "first" and
"second". Otherwise, the user will wrongly assume that the signature is
asymmetric and that they should be careful about which order they pass
the arguments in.

Antoine.
