Writing a new universal cross-platform plugin?

[Roy Sigurd Karlsbakk]

hi all

This friend of mine came up with a rather neat idea:

Write a new universal cross-platform plugin in perl (run as service in 
windows). Configure the service to expose the services to be monitored (disk 
space on device c: or /dev/sda, cpu etc), and have an auto-dicover script 
dicover all local hosts/services, creating nagios configs for it.

Perhaps this should be done directly in a database? will nagios 2 support 
database-based configs?
