Consider Modifying Inline to Allow for Arbitrary Order of Arguments #155

Description

@jrg94

The way Inline works right now, there is a clear hierarchy or precedence of attributes. For example, images and links take precedence over styling. As stated in the docs:

Due to this design, some forms of inline text are not possible.

I am curious if there is a way to allow order of arguments to matter for precedence or if this would even be a good idea. I know inspect library lets you do some introspection: https://docs.python.org/3.8/library/inspect.html#introspecting-callables-with-the-signature-object. I haven't looked too deeply, so this may not even be possible. And I certainly do not want to shift to a kwargs solution, as I prefer having keywords that are picked up in IDEs and static analysis tools.
