Hmm some comments to this...

This sounds like a bear to maintain, while I think it's important to
do in a complex environment like you have.

I'm wishing the info you are doing is more included in the module
syntax of Puppet's language itself.

It's interesting to see you don't use Puppet's built in tagging (ie
development, staging, production).  Just curious why?

What would you consider needed in Puppet to make your development
easier?

I'm thinking:
- module version
- dependencies needed to get the module working (with version info)
- some sort of naming convention to allow modules to be shareable, and
cannot overlap (ie one person has a openssh-server module that does
one thing, yet another person uses the same name but does something
different)  This is needed so modules can be shared in some sort of
public repository.
