<Red Hat Subscription Manager pedantry follows>

The examples currently shown in the docs aren't actually pool ids, just regexes
to match against either the product name or subscription name associated with a
pool. The plugin uses that to find a pool id (something like 
'8a99f984514f448401515a0392042528').

Pools and pool ids are kind of a weird concept though, since they are unique 
globally
(and potentially N:N with subscriptions and orders). It allows a fine level of
granularity and flexibility when attaching pools. But unfortunately pool ids
are almost never useful for DWIM scenarios, hence the redhat_subscriptions 
modules
code for regex matching on the names (and subman's list --match= options). Auto
attach will generally DWIM, except when it doesn't, which isn't particular 
idempotent.
[current module does take lengths to preserve existing state though...]

I see a couple of minor oddities in the module now. I'll get an issue in about 
it.
