Hi,
I have related issue and i implemented this as lookup plugin that return a value, based on another vars (like find image_id based on aws region) and this is working,

but my vars contain {{var}} , and not interpolated

like:
root_vars:
us-east-1:
sec_groups: {{app}}-public

and then i ask for “sec_groups” i got “{{app}}-public” and not “my-app-piblic”

i use ansible 1.9.2

Thanks for help.
