That seems unnecessarily cumbersome.  I can see why you'd want them to
be specifically identified, but why require the count rather than just
taking as many cmdline.foo arguments as are present?  I don't really see
what you're trying to achieve here.

(Also, cmdline.* is odd naming given that the whole thing arrives on a
command line anyway.)
