Yes, we would need to have another tool to manage the distribution of modules. 
I was looking at writing an mcollective plugin that I can push a configuration 
to that would include which module and which version of that module to install 
on the local system. The configuration would also include a manifest for the 
node to run. I currently have a similar system that uses subversion tags to 
check out the modules I need and tie in to a home grown queuing system that 
triggers a run. It works, but it's not elegant.
