Re: Add the ability to describe Data Type for a Resource Param If I understand this correctly, I don't think it's needed or desirable. Is this saying that a module author would need to define, for every parameter / property, a Puppet type in the ruby lib/puppet/type/foo.rb for native types, or in Puppet code (somewhere??) for defined types.

Re: Add the ability to describe Data Type for a Resource Param

The new Resource API is already doing this to a degree - the data type of parameters/properties can be described by types in the type system. An author uses String, Enum, etc. and can add data types of their own if they need that - from what I have seen, those types can be defined in the resource data type itself (the type definitions are declarative, and only if something is really special would they have to have a backing implementation of the data type).
