Maybe most easily, but definitely not impossible. Currently I can deploy gitlab, gitlab-ci, phpmyadmin, phpipam, etherpad, owncloud, all on the same server behind nginx. I don't see how including templates in nginx role from other roles to make that possible could help me. > > > So is there another use case that we can discuss. > > I have a 'common' role that deploys /etc/hosts.

Why not deploy for example dnsmasq?
