The name of the variable doesn't matter, that's still what it does; you can
think of it as encapsulating any other keyword arguments.

    >>> def foo(bar, **kwargs):
    ...     print("bar: %s" % (bar,))
    ...     print("kwargs: %r" % (kwargs,))
    ...
    >>> foo("bar", baz="qux", wibble="wobble")
    bar: bar
    kwargs: {'baz': 'qux', 'wibble': 'wobble'}
