Issue #12930 has been updated by Nigel Kersten.

Had an in-person chat about this.

We don't want to enforce semantics around nodes here, as we're quite frankly 
unsure about the long term future of the DSL node construct. We don't *know* 
that it is going away, but we're certainly having thoughts in that direction.

There are needs other than nodes here, such as the ability to have a "conf.d" 
style directory to drop fragments for resource defaults etc, so we want to 
offer the more general capability.
----------------------------------------
Feature #12930: Provide a manifest directory where all manifests are 
automatically parsed.

There is at least one major use case where users need to import a set of 
manifest files, the following pattern:

<pre>
# manifests/site.pp
import nodes/*.pp
</pre>

As per the parent ticket, we're looking to deprecate `import`, and the most 
obvious solution appears to be to offer a configuration option for a directory 
where all manifest files are automatically parsed, much like site.pp is now.

This option *does* need to be per-environment.

Randall, I'm looking for input from your team on the user-facing design here, 
and if this solution is appropriate, tactical info like the actual name of the 
configuration parameter.
