service dependency and escalations

We are still running nagios 2.x.
Is it possible to specify a servicedependency and/or a service escalation within a service definition?
For the serviceescalation part, they are much like servicegroups where it has to be defined somewhere, but after that you can specify the group in the service def, but not the escalation?
iE: define serviceescalation {
name 15-minute-escalation
contact_groups group
first_notification 2
last_notification 0
escalation_period 24x7
notification_interval 15
}
It'd be cool if we could then do :
define service {
Host a
Service_desc b
Escalation 15-minute-escalation
}
For the dependencies:
I run into the situation that a service is dependent on another service on the same host. Even though this host is in a hostgroup, I can't use the hostgroup to specify the dependencies.
This makes the configs very messy and not easily templatizable.
I've looked at the docs for the config files, but they seem a bit out of date (they don't even say that you can specify hostgroup instead of host_name in a service def).
Is something like this possible for the 3.x series?
Thanks,
-Lori
