----------------------------------

Excellent idea.  Im almost on the verge of saying , since the toolchain is really just for building, and we can do that in dockerfiles, someday "apply toolchain" can be replaced w/ "docker pull". 

But thats another conversation. 

+1 !

> We can simplify the bootstrap of the development environment by hooking the toolchain right into the gradle build.
> Thanks to the development of {{gradlew}} now you don't need to have anything on a system to have a functional build. I'd say a need to run {{puppet apply}} manually is going against this great paradigm: users needs to go through README files and try to figure out what to do.  I'd rather do 
> {{gradle toolchain}} that will run {{sudo puppet apply...}} under the hood and deliver a functional environment.
