What's the community's preferred style for modules giving default content for a file, but allowing users to supply their own content on a site or node basis?

I first tripped over the idea in lelutin/puppet-apt_cacher_ng@1ba3928. I'm now using puppet:///files/ to avoid Error 400 on SERVER: Not authorised to call find.
