Thanks, meanwhile I realized that some macros had this behaviour (toc...),
and that is was because they are Java macros ... ;-)

If I can give my opinion, I think it would be

That's exactly how real (JAVA) macros are defined and what is
supported by the WYSIWYG. It's just a temporary limitation of WIKI
macros.
(See
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/RenderingMacroTutorial)
But it would not be a requirement for me, just an
interesting
improvement.
And I'm not sure about how this could be done
... Maybe having a
XWikiMacroParameterXxxClass for each property type Xxx ? At the end it's
more the way data is entered by user that's interesting. Having a macro
{{avatar}} in wich user can choose from a list of wiki users would
definitely make macros even more extraordinary :)
Of course the macros would have to accept the possible java types of the
various properties types (strings, lists, integers...) so it would be a
change in syntax.

If you think that this is an important requirement, you can propose it
as an improvement of the upcoming xwiki/2.1 syntax.
