Mysql Support

[Showkilr]

I was actually thinking of creating a wrapper system for the database
support. so that the wrapper itself handles all the calls to
mysql/postgresql/flatfile/??XML?? depending on the define at build time.

I have seen this type of wrapper for Mysql and Postgresql.  adding
support for other types shouldn't be trivial..

The conclusion was that yes, these solutions were viable, but instead of *replacing* the Nagios config files, the alternative solutions, once populated, would be used to *create* the Nagios config files.  Nagios would therefore need no direct modifications, Ethan et al wouldn't need to burn any additional midnight oil, and folks such as yourself would be happy campers.
