Core:
- Support singletons (see types/issue for a good reason)
- probably name them only_once and use that as the internal id!
- cdist-deploy-to: Configure more than one host
- plus parallel mode like in ccollect
Type handler:
- add dependency parameters to core available for every type
--requires
--excludes?
Stage 5 (code execution):
- check return codes
- abort on first error?
- dependencies
Dependencies:
- Add meta parameters like --requires --excludes --depends?
- Build dependency tree
- Exit on any error
- Check return codes
Types to be written/extended:
- __ssh-keys (host/user)
- __service
- __user
- __file_edit
- add_line_to_file_if_not_existing
- delete_line_from_file
- regexp replace (can probably cover all?)
