I agree with you that it should be kept simple. Just this week I asked
the question about the $ipaddress fact that Daniel mentioned.

In my case the confusion was caused by the fact that something named
$ipaddress should imply that it would point to the 'right' (tm)
address.. whatever that means.

How about simply adding a means to change the interface to which the
$ipaddress fact is bound, maybe via a config in puppet.conf. This would
"empower" users to fix the situation in such cases where 'the first
interface' heuristic doesn't fit.
