Especially if you are "adding/removing files at a furious rate", this will lead to conflicts sooner or later, and it will be highly appreciated if you can track down where a specific file or change came from. I can understand that you want to avoid the burden of building distribution packages. A quick alternative could be to setup separate directories for each app, like Michael suggested, /opt/foo, /opt/bar, but to use a version control system such as Subversion to manage and update the contents. Just checkout the app "foo" to /opt/foo, to make /opt/foo a working copy. Then commit the latest version to your central repository and let puppet do the "svn update" on all your nodes.
