Issue #2286 has been updated by Luke Kanies.

Status changed from Needs design decision to Accepted
Assigned to deleted (Luke Kanies)

The need is clearly there, but I think there's a lot of work to do to figure 
out the right syntax, especially since it somehow needs to fit into the 
catalog.

Refactor #2286: Improved purging of resources
http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/2286

Author: James Turnbull
Status: Accepted
Priority: Normal
Assigned to: 
Category: 
Target version: unplanned
Affected version: 0.24.8
Branch: 


Removing unmanaged resources is currently done through the resources type:

resources { user: purge => true }

After multiple conversations about this fact (and the second one especially), 
it has been concluded that the better way to do this is to make the resources 
type behave more like a normal type, in that ensure would be the main 
attribute, with a second selection attribute, select, used to pick which 
resources are being managed. Most likely, only unspecified resources could be 
selected, else we would have a conflict, but it might make sense at some point 
to support selecting a subset of resources.
