Clarification Request: NODE inheritance only, right ?

This doesn't make me happy, but fine. Major versions let you have breaking
changes.
My question is this: What do I replace it with?
My use case is as follows:
------------------------------------
node default {
class{ 'ntp': }
class{ 'dns': }
class{ 'monitoring': }
class{ 'puppet_agent': }
}
node 'myweb' inherits default {
class{ 'web': }
}
node 'mydb' inherits default {
class{ 'db': }
}
-----------------------------------
This has several very useful features:
1) Everything 'standard' is nicely encapsulated in the 'default' node.
2) Everything in 'default' resolves and is complete before anything in 'web' or 'db' is done. This means I don't have to go crazy about 'requires' and 'notify' for these resources. They're already done.
So: What do I do instead which handles the two features? I could easily build
a new class with everything in the default node... But that fails the second
piece. I'd have to build a nasty anchor pattern in every node to ensure that
everything in default resolves first... which is ugly.
Thoughts?
