I don't want to hijack this thread, but I've found parameterized roles fit my use case perfectly. However, a couple related things caught me out earlier tonight: both the apt_key 'file' parameter, and 'with_file' seem to ignore the roles search paths. I have an apt role which handles installing the package keys, adding and updating repositories, and installing a list of packages. Passing e.g. 'nginx.key' from the nginx role wouldn't work, as they looked only in roles/apt/tasks rather than roles/*/files as I expected. Passing a full path worked. (If I remember correctly! I'm a little hazy on the exact details now, although if this isn't as expected I can do some legwork tomorrow and raise a bug.)

Thanks very much!

yeah shoot the list an email on this. All the lookup plugins should use the roles search path already, but it could be that one got missed. I'd probably want to see a snippet of the playbook to understand a little better too. Thanks!
