Feature #2225: Abililty to manage a user only if it already exists

I have a situation at a site where accounts can't be removed, as they need to 
keep track of which users particular uid's have been assigned to for the life 
of the server. As a result doing: 

user { foo: ensure => absent }

is not applicable. For those systems, we need to lock the accounts. I've been 
using 

user { foo: password => "*LK*", shell => "/bin/false" }

Problem is that if I add new servers to the environment, the foo user will be 
created (in a locked form of course) which is not required. Perhaps something 
like ensure => ifpresent or similar?
