I'll take a look. It looks fairly trivial.

If my gut-feeling is right, I can retain backward compatibility at the same
time as adding this, but we'll see.
At any rate, the article brings up some interesting points that relates
somewhat to other aspects of nrpe I've been pondering. Once the code is in
better shape, it should be easier to see how viable the feature requests
are and how they affect backward compatibility.

Neither do I. But I like the "code first, ask later" approach and hope the
code will speak for itself by the end of the day.
