We are considering changing the -Name parameter to be the first positional parameter for all Get-* and New-* cmdlets.

The idea is that "Get-X Y" will always return the object of type X named Y.
Examples:
1. Get-VM X will return the VM named X (this is the current behavior)
2. Get-VirtualSwitch X will return the Virtual Switch named X (this is not the current behavior).

Some cmdlet behavior will need to change if we do this.

Currently Get-VirtualSwitch X will return all Virtual Switches on host X. Does anyone take advantage of this behavior? Does this behavior make more sense than the proposed change?

We would appreciate any feedback.
