It should be very simple to add foreman support now.  There's an ExtLookup
class that has a backend.  There's already the CSV backend that R.I.
originally wrote, and it's pretty straightforward to see how you could pass
it another backend.

It has tests.  In fact it has reasonable test coverage.  I'm just trying to
pull logic out of the function that it originally shipped with and into the
main ExtLookup class.  I should probably reach out to the puppet-dev list so
I can get some feedback.
