Revisiting this, I'll go further.  Given the level of effort CFEngine goes to 
in order to protect people from shooting themselves in the foot, this design 
decision doesn't make any real sense to me.

"Applies to every node unless explicitly told otherwise.", for the sake of 
keeping input files slightly cleaner for the handful of things that apply to 
all nodes in most environments, doesn't fall in line at all with anything else 
in CFEngine, IMO.
