Issue #3933 has been updated by Richard Crowley.

Would having or not having this feature most effectively encourage manifest 
authors to get dependencies right?  I've encountered several Puppet deployments 
that talk about Puppet "converging" because dependencies weren't all met at the 
proper time on the first X runs.

I can imagine `--failfast` being a useful tool in development but I can also 
imagine its abuse in a production environment that just runs `puppet agent 
--failfast` in a `for` loop.

Does anyone have a better sense of whether this is a worthwhile consideration?

Feature #3933: Option to make Puppet fail as soon as a resource fails.

I think I might have filed this before on the old trac system, but I can't find 
it.

Basically I'd like the equivalent of bash "set -e" on Puppet client runs.  When 
you're debugging weird transient failures, it would be a lot faster if you 
could just make puppetd die as soon as a resource failed.
