Puppet users - Dec 2010 - Feature request: queued triggers

Hi,

We have several situations where it is desireable to do catalog runs on
demand. We have ''puppetrun'' for that, but it can -and does-
happen, that a
catalog run is already in progress when we trigger a run by hand. In that
case, the triggered run is skipped.

I would like to have the possibility to tell Puppet to queue the trigger,
and when the currently running catalog run is finished, process it and do
another run.

Does this sound like a good idea?

Best regards,
Martijn.

Ah, I didn''t bother to check the issue tracker.

Updated by Luke Kanies about 1 year ago:
"of course, a relatively low priority"

I wonder what ''relatively'' means in this respect ;-)

Cheers,
Martijn.
