Some people do create "node classes", but as you can imagine, it doesn't
scale very well. Nevertheless, it shouldn't break.
I wonder whether you can work around the issue by using the absolute name
of the class, like this:
node 'centos' {
include '::centos'
}
Likewise, I wonder whether you can work around the issue of referencing
class variables inside node blocks by referring to them via their absolute
names.
