It comes in pints^Wprompts? I'm getting one. 

The code is still broken in that the re-injection filtering is too 
aggressive for its stated purpose. Also, the original-original commit 
(75b6f61) left some code detritus around in the form of RESET_VARS which is 
a variable that is assigned to but no longer ever read from (AFAICT). Of 
course the tilde expansion code that gets bent out of shape over 
become_user probably shouldn't do that, but I think I found that source 
code a couple of years ago and I'm not surprised that nobody is in a hurry 
to poke at it. 

I have read the variables documentation quite often, and it never mentions 
this. vars_prompt only seems to be mentioned in the "Playbooks: Special 
Topics" page and it would be nice if the Playbooks / Variables page listed 
all the ways that variables can be specified in a playbook. It only has to 
note that vars_prompt is a special topic and move on. 

I'll try and create github issues for these so that they can be recorded in 
excruciating detail for posterity, if nothing else.

Cheers
