Optional arguments - e.g. fun(var=None)

[gitPrinz]

Parameters can be optional with a default value.

some_function(some_variable: some_type = default_value)

Is there any possibility to show this in the variable description?

For Example this could be solved

• after the type hint by (some_type - default: default_value)
• or as extra line below the description

This has come up more than once, and I'll consider it. This project is not on my priority list, however, and I'm looking for a new maintainer so don't expect this to materialize soon.

A PR for this would be welcome.
