Depending on your environment, you may not have access to Cobbler to
always manipulate the profile comments. Also, you may not want to ever
limit the user from selecting a profile, and the filtered search is
slower than just grabbing them all. So add a setting for not requiring
the filter and modify get_hosts accordingly.
