Event Handler Arguments?

[Russell Scibetti]

I have a possibly useful feature request for Nagios.  Currently, in a 
service definition, the check_command line takes the name of a defined 
command, and then arguments (separated by "!").  These can then be 
references in the command as $ARG#$.

Now, the event_handler line also takes the name of a defined command, 
but there is no ability to pass arguments.  If the functionality already 
exists to pass arguments to a check_command, I can't see it being very 
difficult to implement for event_handlers as well.  Take, for example, a 
service that has a specific port pass to the check_command as an 
argument.  If you want to restart this service, you might need that port 
number again in the event handler.

So what do people think?  Ethan, would this be difficult to add for 2.0?
