Different paging for different levels

David and others who've responded:
I'm going to go ahead and give multiple contacts a shot, and play
with the notification_options for the contacts to prevent certain contacts
from getting certian kinds of pages. Will this get around the issue Anthony
mentioned, where a Warning->Critical state change doesn't get detected, or
is that just a fundamental limitation of the software at this point?

Chris,
I've found myself in the same situation. What I decided to do was create a
template for email & pager contacts. Since I have multiple contacts I can
define email contacts or pager contacts or both for each user, depending on
their situation. Simply inheriting from the correct template was all I did.
Have you thought about this? Are there flaws with it?
