Hello,

currently, the Ansible plugin is limited to execute Ansible roles. However, 
there are several reasons for considering direct Ansible playbook 
execution. 

Just with roles, there is a lack of control over the execution order as the 
structuring element, the playbook, is statically created by the plugin. In 
addition to that, some fundamental features of Ansible on playbook-level 
cannot be used with roles, for example strategies 
<http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/playbooks_delegation.html#rolling-update-batch-size>
. 

Therefore, I think, that the plugin should support playbook execution, not 
just role execution. 

What do you think about this? I would really appreciate some more thoughts 
before starting to work on this. 

Thanks for reading.
