This got me confused for a sec when doing some live demo:

>>> match x:
...    case A(y=1, foo):
  File "<stdin>", line 2
    case A(y=1, foo):
                   ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

I propose to improve this to:

>>> match x:
...    case A(y=1, foo):
  File "<stdin>", line 2
    case A(y=1, foo):
                ^^^
SyntaxError: cannot mix keyword patterns and positional patterns

Btw, I noticed this is allowed:

>>> match x:
...    case A(foo, t=3):
...        ...
...

but this is not:

>>> match x:
...    case A(foo=3, t):

Is that on pourpose?

If this is supposed to mirror function calls, maybe the error should be::

>>> match a:
...    case A(foo=3, t):
  File "<stdin>", line 2
    case A(foo=3, t):
                  ^
SyntaxError: positional patterns follow keyword patterns

Yep, it's intentional.

And yep, I like the new error message better. :)
