I disagree. The module is the only one that has (and should have) 
knowledge of which parameter means what. You moved that decision in a 
function that wants to be generic and this created all the mess.

Then what about a function that receives 2 parameters, a str and an int 
which both need conversion from char* to str respectively int? Will you 
write another special conversion function to handle both arguments? What 
if the function changes and receives the int on the first position and 
the string on the second? How many conversion functions will we need to 
cover all cases?
