[systemd-devel] Extending os-release

["Jóhann B. Guðmundsson"]

Hi

I've noticed repeated problem through history where administrators seem 
to be struggling with clearly identify the server environment they are 
working in.
Some try to come up with terminal colours associated with it, others use 
hostnaming scheme etc, so I was wondering if we could not solve that by 
introducing a new option to os-release called "ENVIRONMENT" which would 
be string that uniquely identifies the system environment in an 
three-tier server scheme as in Development, Staging, and Production ( or 
simply have it free for administrators own definition) as in

ENVIRONMENT=Development
ENVIRONMENT=Staging
ENVIRONMENT=Production

Thoughts?
