Comment 3 for bug 541907

I'm marking this "won't fix" . The functionality is currently easily available with 'runcmd'. For implementation, see the following cloud-config:

#cloud-config
foobar:
 - &alphabet |
   #!/bin/sh
   echo "======= $(date) ${0##*/} ========"
   echo "hello ${1}"
   echo "abcdefghijk..."

runcmd:
 - [ sh, -c, *alphabet, "say-the-alphabet", "scott" ]
