A bit off-topic, but I believe it would be nice to have a way to execute
commands directly rather than using the shell. I'm thinking of a
different command option that could be used instead of "command_line"...
i.e.:
command_exec $USER1$/check_dummy!1!WARNING: $SERVICEDESC$ is stale.
Basically, the first argument is the full path to the executable, and
following ones are the argument array passed to execve. Bangs (!) would
be argument separators (like in service definitions) with maybe the
possibility of escaping them (otherwise a bang in a macro can do the trick).
That would give much more flexibility when complex parameters must be
passed.
