I think you want our patch. This allows a contact to be specified  
with a flag to stop them submitting commands, yet you can still use  
contactgroups to specify what services they are allowed to see. This  
is in the Nagios 3 branch, but Ethan has not put it into Nagios 2.x -  
drop him a line if you find it useful!
