I figure I should clarify a little bit.  Unless my understanding of Puppet
internals is way off it would be quite a lot of work to add the filter as
it stands.  A lot of code would have to change internally to make it
capable of filtering on parameters.  By complexity I meant code wise, not
puppet manifest/syntax wise.  I just meant that it would take a lot of
development to get it working consistently and properly as a metaparam
throughout the codebase.  It would be nice to hear from someone at
puppetlabs just how difficult this would be to add based on the 3.0
codebase.
