+- cdist-manifest-init/ cdist_tree_wrapper:
+   - fails on second run => use different cache! (old cache exists until new is valid!)
+- .source in cdist_tree_wrapper records wrong source!
+- cdist-config:

+- doc/man/* => defined in TODO

+Future:
+- ids containing slashes for easier use in types?
+   - a) __file abc --source /path/from/abc --destination /path/to/abc
+   - b) id=abc
+        __file $id --source /path/from/$id --destination /path/to/$id
+   - c) __file abc --sourcedir /path/from/ --destination_dir /path/to/
+      - type file defines that id is implicitly used when --...dir variants used
+   - d) __file /path/to/abc --source ? --destination ?
+      - reusing id with slashes would be nice
