The way we do this is via a small modification to the status.cgi script,
so that there is an extra filter option which only displays things
currently within their alerting window (its an extra flag in the
bitfield options to serviceprops and hostprops).  So, with this flag
set, the screen will only show items which are currently able to send
out alerts.  

Works well for us - I can send a copy of the modified status.c if you
want, but we're using nagios 1.4...
