Issue #7605 has been updated by Henrik Lindberg.

+1 for 'virtual' instead of '@'
Also need to deal with the '@' that means exported and change that to 
'exported' keyword.
The should probably  be allowed in any order - i.e:

    exported virtual
    virtual exported

Feature #7605: Virtual resource operator is too magical, hard to read

The virtual resource operator:

    @user { luke: ensure => present }

Is relatively easy to type but, if you don't know it, very hard to read.  We 
should consider a word-based syntax, e.g.:

    virtual user { luke: ensure => present }

Camp EU, 2011.  No promises whatever about implementation, but there were 
enough people interested to open a public discussion.*
