Subject: Dynamic inputs and maplist function

I'm attempting to have definable inputs to allow for privacy. Consider this
example.
bundle common foo {
vars:
"l" slist => { "a.cf", "b.cf", "c.cf" };
"cl" slist => maplist("${sys.workdir}/dir/$(this)", "l");
reports:
cfengine::
"cl => ${cl}";
}
body common control {
#ignore_missing_inputs => "true";
bundlesequence => { "foo", "main", };
foo::
inputs => { "@{foo.l}", };
bar::
inputs => { "@{foo.cl}", };
}
bundle agent main {
methods:
"any" usebundle => test;
}
bundle agent test {
reports:
cfengine::
"test";
}
# cf-promises -f ./inputs.cf -D foo
Can't stat file "./a.cf" for parsing
!!! System reports error for stat: "No such file or directory"
# cf-promises -f ./inputs.cf -D bar
Can't stat file "./@{foo.cl}" for parsing
!!! System reports error for stat: "No such file or directory"
Notice that the normal (l) list's contents is expanded into inputs. Meanwhile
the list (cl) created via maplist is not expanded. Have I done something wrong?
On the subject of maplist be aware of this bug:
