You mean people would feel forced to leave out the argument name just to silence the compiler?
I can only see that happening for functions in interface classes that defines some kind of callback, and that for some reason need to have a (more or less) dummy body (the warning should of course be disabled for pure declarations).
In such cases I'd be fairly satisfied with the option of providing a more complete function declaration using @decl in a refdoc comment.
If worst comes to worst, it's always possible to give a name in a comment instead:
string chop_chop (object /*context*/, string data) {return data;}
