As a code complementation suggestion theres no need to put 0 instead is better only put the comma when the parameter is required.

This idea came when i had to type about ten times a function like this func('', '', [], '', [] , []); wich time the parameters changed, of course i did ctrl+c ctrl+v. This would be only a very subtle behavior. Like every one knows, details are in the art of the elegancy.
