Issue #7523 has been updated by Nick Lewis.

Status changed from Accepted to Needs Decision
Assignee set to Nigel Kersten
Branch set to https://github.com/nicklewis/puppet/tree/ticket/next/7523

It's unclear whether this should be included in 2.7 or 2.8. A branch is 
available at https://github.com/nicklewis/puppet/tree/ticket/next/7523
    
    This commit unifies some paths in the grammar, which had previously been
    duplicated to avoid shift/reduce conflicts. Merging these paths together and
    separating only the conflicting structures leads to a cleaner grammar, with
    fewer holes.
    
    Several bugs are fixed as a result:
      (#3129) Nested class names beginning with numbers work correctly
      (#5268) Hyphens in class names work correctly
      (#5817) Hashes and arrays can now be passed to functions (hashes require 
parentheses)
    
    Additionally, expressions are now legal in most places where they would make
    sense, when previously only bare rvalues were allowed.

Bug #7523: Refactor the grammar to reduce duplication
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/7523

Author: Nick Lewis
Status: Needs Decision

Branch: https://github.com/nicklewis/puppet/tree/ticket/next/7523


There are several nearly-identical branches in the grammar, created to avoid 
shift/reduce conflicts. These can be unified with some adjustments, to make the 
grammar cleaner, more consistent, and more correct.
