Control: severity -1 wishlist

I don't think a bug report starting with these words is of different
severity than "wishlist". :-)

That doesn't make sense to me. Why should I get an alarm from all
workstations if only the file server is full. Or why should I get an
alarm from workstation X if only workstation Y is full. IMHO any such
local check should only get an alarm for the host on which the problem
exists and nowhere else.

Additionally I would expect that this would cause hanging a monitoring
client if any of the mounted remote file systems are unreachable or
otherwise unavailable.

Maybe I'm overseening something with this request. But from my
experience with NFS in a workstation-server and
workstation-workstation setup as well as with CIFS client-to-server
and SSHFS point-to-point, this would be insane, at least
as default setting.

                Regards, Axel
