Issue #7788 has been updated by Nigel Kersten.

Given we're integrating 'puppet module' into Puppet, and assuming that we're 
actually going to fulfill our promise to make it easy to distribute all the 
kinds of Puppet extension points (faces, facts, lib/whatever, providers) via 
modules, I'd love to get feedback from people on this ticket as to whether they 
think we really should deliver this functionality?

Feature #7788: Puppet should allow rubygems to deliver new functionality
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/7788

Author: R.I. Pienaar

Target version: 2.7.x

Branch: ripienaar/feature/master/7788


It would be desirable to use Rubygems to install things like parser functions. 

There might be cases where you only want a function on the master, pluginsync 
would copy it everywhere and everywhere might not have the dependencies needed 
to run it.

If the autoloader considered the rubygem search path while autoloading this 
should allow gems to extend puppet.
