Issue #2585 has been updated by Luke Kanies.

Status changed from Needs design decision to Accepted

I'm fine with this, but I think it'll be wicked-complicated to do this - 
current defaults work by only adding values where there are none, and here we'd 
need to track that values were added via this addition mechanism and only add 
the defaults if they were added this way.

In other words, we'd have to change both how the values were set and how the 
defaults were done.

So, I like the feature, the implementation might not be feasible.

I'm not sure which operand is most suitable for this, but you should be able to 
do something like:

<pre>
Package { require => [File["foo"], [File["bar"]], }

package { "foo":
  ...
  require +> [ File["spam"], File["eggs"] ],
}

as currently you have to jump through a whole bunch of hoops to declare 
variables and append to them in a different scope to get the same functionality.
