I not sure this still holds true for v2.0

I have some hosts without checks:

Checking hosts...
Warning: Host 'Internet' has no services associated with it!
Warning: Host 'InternetV6' has no services associated with it!
Warning: Host 'wichita.qi.nl' has no services associated with it!
Warning: Host 'www.qi.nl' has no services associated with it!
        Checked 18 hosts.

Still I receive UP and DOWN reports on them. The first two I might claim
are dependencies for all non-local hosts and might be triggered by other
events. But the last two are leafnodes and nothing depends on them.
