I think I share the same frustration as Markus.
If you assign a template to a host, you don't know what checks that template
uses (that's within the monitors tab).
I would think that all monitors (service checks) that are used by a host
should appear checked (monitors tab). Then, maybe, for the ones that were
assigned by a host template, the checkbox should be read-only (that would
indicate that this monitor was assigned by a template as opposed to manually
checking it).
The only problem I see is that currently, if I'm not mistaken, you guys
allow a check to be manually selected even if that check was assigned to
that host by a template.
