This does help clarify. If that service is applied to that host, then
'support' will indeed see that service but no one else will. Contacts
for hosts will automatically see all services on that host
(effectively they're at a higher level). See
http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/cgiauth.html
. That particular authorization can't be restricted AFAIK.
