Issue #4997 has been updated by Oliver Hookins.

Touché Nigel. The current desire is to have some sort of management server that 
provides features above and beyond what Puppet currently can do (or is even 
desirable). One such feature is providing dynamic configuration or metadata to 
other servers via an HTTP interface. We don't always want there to have to be a 
real file at the other end of the file source - it may be autogenerated. We 
also don't want to force colocation of such a service with the Puppetmaster.

Feature #4997: HTTP file source for file type

We would like to be able to use an HTTP source for the file type. Looking at 
the code, it probably would not be too difficult so perhaps someone has 
considered this before.
