Giving contacts limited viewing access without notifications

[Raymond Page]

I didn't explain my situation quite right.  I'm trying to expand what 
existing contacts can see.  They are currently getting notified and 
seeing services respective to their job function (ie. services they 
maintain), but they need to see other services as well (they support 
but do not directly maintain), but don't want to receive 
notifications for these other services that they can see.

It's not a matter of creating a contact with notification period none 
or making their contact method invalid (or mail /dev/null), it's a 
matter of giving view access to a service on a per contact basis 
while nullifying notifications for that user for that service.
