I have created a hierarchy of hostgroups with different environments assigned to them. When a new Puppet node is contacting the Puppet server, it is automatically created and shown in Foreman with a default 'production' environment. I then assign the node to its correct hostgroup, but it does not automatically inherit its environment from its hostgroup, as I would like.

It should be possible (perhaps optional) to have a node always inherit its environment from its hostgroup, so moving a node to a different hostgroup is easier and less error-prone.
