[Fab-user] Maybe my fabfile callables should get called with a parameter

[Matthew Wilson]

I'm daydreaming here, but I can see a scenario where I want to do one
thing on one box, and something slightly different on another box,
e.g.:

@hosts('a.example.com')
def foo():
    run('touch a.example.com')

@hosts('b.example.com')
def bar():
    run('touch b.example.com')

It would be neat if I could use the host currently being connected to
as a variable in my callable, like:

@hosts('a.example.com', 'b.example.com')
def baz(local_env):
    hostname = localenv['host']
    run('touch %s' % hostname)

Maybe this is already possible.

Matt
