Form validation in notification config
The notification conditions allow configurations that do not work as a user might expect.
For instance, it is possible to set "Match services" while also configuring "Match host event type". A user might expect this rule to send notifications for hosts as well as the configured services. When consulting the internal help of "Match services", this is actually not the case: "Note: Host notifications never match this rule if this option is being used."
It would be helpful if there was some sort of form validation that better informs the user they are trying to configure non-working conditions.
