The "view config" option is merely a wrapper around the config.cgi CGI, since 
that was my very first idea: if I can just drop in a few PHP classes so I 
have the same functionality current Nagios ui has, then I can go at my own 
pace adding functionality or rewriting CGIs as I feel I can, and still using 
the byproduct on a day by day basis.

As you can see what you propose is not a technical nigthmare, still it needs a 
config access abstraction, which is not trivial (since that config can be 
found into flat files, databases or, potentially any remote access procedure) 
and the "high level" access interface, so it seems not a few hours task.  
Anyway I want a graphic configuration tool too, one that does respect any 
by-hand change I'd do, comments and the like, so there's high chance I'll go 
for it.

On the other hand, you know this is open source: how could you help with this?
