Feature #3147: Improve metaparameter wording
http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/3147

Author: Michael Lee
Status: Accepted
Priority: Normal

Target version: Statler
Affected version: 0.25.4

Branch: 


Please consider adding an alias for 'require' called 'after,' which matches 
'before.'

The metaparameter names 'require' and 'before,' taken together, are not very 
intuitive.  If you asked a new user what word is the opposite of 'before' they 
would not say 'require.'  

There is precedent for keyword overloading already.  For example, the 'ensure' 
parameter for a service can be true, false, running, or stopped.
