Feature request: "overlay" property similar to "override"

[curiositycasualty]

    {
      "node_name": "{{build_name}}-{{timestamp}}",
      "run_list": [
        "recipe[foo::recipe]"
      ],
      "overlay": {
        "alpha": {
          "run_list": [
            "recipe[bar::recipe]"
          ]
        }
      },
      "type": "chef-client"
    }

Would produce a chef provisioner with a "run_list" of "recipe[foo::recipe],recipe[bar::recipe]".
