auditing for external commands?

We're looking at possibly allowing more individual users into the web interface and allowing them to schedule their own downtime.  One concern is that if a team doesn't get an alert they could come to my team (the team that administers Nagios) and say "why didn't Nagios send us an alert when X was down?" when the issue was actually caused because a member of their own team had disabled notifications.

I know we can see that an external command was executed in the log file and when, but there's no way of knowing (as far as I can see) who actually requested that that command be run.  In my opinion, it could be useful to know that 'bob' requested that notifications be disabled on host X particularly as it pertains to the web interface.

Is there a way to do this or would this need to be a feature request?

Thanks

Mark
