I have just updated this ticket with my findings.

If you have any comments or observations please post here.

I do have some comments about this (as the described problem was triggered by 
me :))

-       Having multiple hostgroups, servicegroups and contacts is quite common 
in a large distributed setup. My setup can be called an Enterprise setup I 
guess.

-       If you have different sites, each with at least 1 slave, and some local 
site IT guys responsible for their site but not for the others, you have to 
limit the access permissions to that site.
But some IT guys need to have a full overview of all sites, and some need to 
access multiple sites but not all.
Combine that with a nice global spread of the sites, and I think you need to 
admit that there is no alternative to get this situation sorted out.

In short: this setup now is the only solution for my situation (I tried 
several).
If there will be an extra option, let's call it 'site', that can be linked to 
hostgroups, hosts and contacts, then I can reduce the amount of contacts.

One question though: what happens if I do not use the hostgroups or 
servicegroups to define the access, but only keywords? Would that help?

Regards,
Toni
