$HOSTDURATION usability

Hi,
	I modified my host-notify-by-email command
to include a line to indicate how long a host had
been down. When I saw it come out in this HOST UP
recovery notification as zero seconds, some quick 
further reading shed light on why. I know this will 
be useful for re-notification of hosts that are still 
down, but I'd like a total on the recovery HOST up 
mail as well. Any way to obtain this without keeping
some home-grown state table or similar mechanism? It
looks like the info might be in the status.dat, but
I don't know if I should be constantly accessing this
file.

Notification Type: RECOVERY
Host: host.foo.bar
State: UP
Host Description: The Downed Host
Address: 12.34.56.78
Info: host up - sshd and snmpd responding

Date/Time: Fri May 26 11:11:47 EDT 2006
Downtime duration: 0d 0h 0m 0s
