The problem is that this approach would limit us to only one host per 
dynamic role.
Conceptually a host's "role" refers mainly to the set of packages 
installed on the host. [0] Also, the distinction between dynamic and 
static is just a detail of the envvar configuration.
In the future we might want to test with e.g. several legacy clients, or 
several replicas without a "ipa-server-ca" package, so we'll want the 
config system to allow more hosts per role.

Since the ticket is not time-critical, and to prevent conflicts, I'll 
add a patch for it to the next revision of my YAML patchset.



[0] "Master" is an unfortunate exception.
