While this is good news, I wanted to highlight that this breaks a pattern
we've been using to land code which is coupled between t-h-t and
puppet-tripleo, e.g:

https://review.openstack.org/#/c/353637/

Which Depends-On:

https://review.openstack.org/#/c/353582/

There is a circular dependency here, which previously wasn't a problem,
we'd ensure the t-h-t patch was all green then land both patches together.

This is no longer possible, so we will have to land t-h-t patches with
backwards compatibility hacks (or put these into puppet-tripleo), then land
the dependent patch, then land another patch to back out the hacks.

I guess this is consistent with what other projects do, but given our
relatively high number of intra-repo dependencies, it's a minor annoyance
to be aware of.

Cheers,
