I''d wonder where you change the option though. In the environment level
options on the master? Also, I'm thinking you'd also need a syntax that
reverses it for looking at facts that might not exist for something like this:
non_strict("cpuid")
to replace the expression:
$cpuid
if you don't know if the fact exists. This might happen if the host's copy of
factor hasn't been changed in a while and you don't want puppet to fail to
compile the catalog that will update factor.
