Hi Bruce thanks for the reply.
I'm showing my ignorance now, but how do 'user' tags differ from 'implicit' tags? My template *does* have a tags array populated, just only with class/node/etc. information from the 'current' class. I just wondered if that was intentional, or if somewhere in the puppet code, there's a tags = get_tags() that could be replaced with (tags+get_tags()).uniq , if you see what I mean. I'll have a poke around github.com/lak next, I guess. Thanks again.
