    Current behavior of 3.0rc

With cloud provisioner installed puppet help is totally broken because a single face action throws an Exception.
STDERR

Error: Could not autoload puppet/face/node/classify: no such file to load -- fog
Error: Could not autoload puppet/face/node: Could not autoload puppet/face/node/classify: no such file to load -- fog
Error: Failed to load face node:
Error: Could not find version current of node
Error: Try 'puppet help help help' for usage

STDOUT

no printable characters

Proposed UX/UI

We plan to mark the summary for the face subcommand as unavailable and continue loading the summaries for other faces.
