Customizing Side Menu Page

[Robert Nelson]

I'm just a retard, don't mind me.

I have to save, you're my savior. This is by far the most useful (and
visible) mod/add-on I've seen for Nagios. Now I don't have to see it all
at once, it actually looks manageable! Thanks!

The only problem I seem to be having is that the "Authorized for all
hosts" users aren't seeing everything unless they're explicitly
specified. Is there a way to wildcard the sidegroups for a particular
user?
