That is useful. It means I can get rid of an additional service on all
my nodes (certmaster).

A few points on puppetrun/func, etc.

1. I would strongly recommend not building a whole load of additional
functionality into puppetrun; leave it as a tool to run puppet on-demand
on an arbitrary set of hosts from puppetmaster.

2. Add the additional functionality by adding a new command (you mention
pfunc above). This could potentially be a port of func.

3. regex would be far better than shell globs. I find globs to be a real
limitation in func..

R.
