- and report location of occurence
- parse afterwards?
- multi master setups

- variable substitution from shell may be problematic

- cdist-explore
- add more stuff to explore
- write manpage
- save in cache as well
- Create usable Makefile
- install
- types needed:
- package management

- services
- user management
- including passwords
- file editing
- add_line_to_file_if_not_existing
- delete_line_from_file
- regexp replace (can probably cover all?)
