I'd really be interested in hearing more about that. In particular, I'm interested in how one might judge whether resource declarations are compatible when they are not identical (after defaults, overrides, and any other relevant modifications are applied). I still have yet to hear any approach to this problem that I like better than my "constraints" idea, now more than two years old: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/puppet-users/module$20compatibility$20constraints/puppet-users/Fvl0aOe4RPE/XpoI1oKpTF0J. On the other hand, I haven't heard much of anything new on the topic since that particular thread went cold.
