I agree in principle, but am worried about the impact. Right now it is
somewhat common to do things like:

  # bad example but should illustrate the idea
  define hosts() {
    host { $title[hostname]: ip => $title[ip] }
  }

  hosts { [{ hostname => andy, ip => '192.168.12.3' },
              { hostname => henrik, ip => '192.168.12.4' }]: }

This ends up creating instances of Hosts with hashes as titles. Often this
works out fine...just not always.
