SUMMARY
Allows running a job template against multiple inventories. Still need:
This is offered as an option to solve #371 and #1999, since users can simply use host patterns in their playbooks to target the hosts they want.
This is also a counter-point to more complex solutions to #371 that still involve loading the full host set, per discussions with @nitzmahone @sivel and others. If a solution results in Ansible core loading all of the source inventory hosts, then it would appear inferior to this (simple) solution in every way I can think of. This multi-inventory approach is a good fallback if we're not able to implement the other proposals, but I also hope that it helps to cull obvious design dead-ends before we waste too much time on them.
This example runs on an execution node, where "alan" and "steve" are hosts from two separate inventories.
