Thanks for your patch. We decided to not include it since you almost always have the hostname in your interface or notification already and we'd like to avoid duplicate information. You might say it's optional, but then it still makes the code more complicated and less maintable and reduces the number of available options for useful future features. Also the whitespace seemed ok already, according to our guidelines (see CODE file) there should be leading tabs followed by spaces. We can discuss about how and if this is useful and state of the art, but that should be done seperatly.
