Issue #3848 has been updated by Nigel Kersten.

I kind of hate it too.

What if instead we had these features:

* server can set environment of client via node classifier
* manifests can contain an instruction to the client to issue another puppet 
run after the current one has succeeded

Then we wouldn't need to deal with this hacky method.

Automatically provisioning puppet clients could be really simple if we had 
these features.

options:
--bootstrap (defaults to no)
--bootstrap_environment (defaults to bootstrap)

If these options are on, the client connects to the puppet server and requests 
a catalog for the bootstrap_environment. If that completes successfully, then 
the client does another run with whatever settings, plugins, config files have 
been placed down by the bootstrap run.
