Passing multiple names is not possible as far as I know without  
looking at the code (I believe it so much I'm not going to look). An  
alternative may be to configure Authorization (mentioned in a  
different thread today), and create a login that is a contact for all  
hosts in those two hostgroups. Logging in with that username would  
restrict the 'hostgroup=all' view to just those two hostgroups.
