Actually, I don't think that pyflakes should do this.  It's perfectly
valid to have a function which accepts a bunch of parameters that it
doesn't use, either because it's an implementation of an interface
(maybe even a no-op implementation!) that doesn't require a parameter
that another implementation might, or because it's accepting parameters
that it may wish to use in the future.

  Detect unused function parameters

Status in Pyflakes:

Bug description:
  Currently pyflakes 0.5 does not detect unused function arguments.

  $ echo "def foo(bar): pass" | pyflakes
