hello,

At present the run_as is a noop, the idea is that there will be a web
service or similar where playbooks live and where you can branch into
other playbooks that might be there too etc. I added the setting because
I want to version the playbooks soon and want these playbooks to be
usable once the service exist.  Sorry this was a bit misleading.

At present - and forever when running locally - it runs as your own
user.

It would be bad if on your shell some ruby code could just switch you
into another user so on the CLI its always local user.

Choria has a concept of a 'privileged certificate' that can masquerade
others which is how the webservice will do this.
