That could be nice-to-have (tm)...

BUT, in the meantime, you can auto-generate your configurations.
Just generate a contactgroup for each contact you have.

for every ${contact} insert this into an auto-generated file (and include it 
in nagios.cfg)

define contactgroup{
 contactgroup_name ${contact}
 members ${contact}
}

A nice bash script will set you up just fine...

I also recommend setting up a Makefile so you can just "make" and do all sort 
of auto-configs.
