+1 (well, not with regard to nano :-)).  I especially like
that "vagrant provision" is much less flappy than
"labs-vagrant provision"; the only actions on subsequent
runs are:

| ==> default: Notice: /Stage[main]/Postfix/Exec[postmap_virtual]/returns: executed successfully
| ==> default: Info: /Stage[main]/Postfix/Exec[postmap_virtual]: Scheduling refresh of Service[postfix]
| ==> default: Notice: /Stage[main]/Postfix/Service[postfix]: Triggered 'refresh' from 1 events
