How would make use of that information on the agent if expressions are
evaluated on the master?  As an example, I'd like to be able to 'query'
the home dir of a role account (without having to install a fact) and
interpolate it into a string to form a path.  I've always found this
scenario a bit frustrating as the type has the data I want; it's just
inaccessible while the catalog is built.
