Breaking Changes for Facter 4

[Branan Riley]

Hey all,

I spent a block of time this afternoon doing a pass at the Facter backlog, and I believe I've flagged all the tickets that should land in a breaking release. This doesn't mean we've committed to doing them, just that I'm not comfortable making the changes in a feature or patch release.

There are only a few of them filed so far, and they're all tagged with the "breaking" label. You can see the list here: https://tickets.puppetlabs.com/issues/?filter=31549

Since it's such a short list, I figured I'd reach out to get suggestions on which of these folks would really like to see land, and which, if any, you'd consider too big to change even in a Facter 4 release.

Also, if you think I missed any, please go ahead and add the "breaking" label. They'll then show up in the filter linked above.

I've fixed the linked ticket list so it's actually public now. Apologies for my ineptitude with Jira
