My look at the source code verifies Wolfgang's assertion. There
is no hint of a hostgroup exclusion capability. The section of the
code is in ${buildDir}/xdata/xodtemplate.c beginning at line 1571
(for Icinga 1.7.0, as released).
Adding that as a feature might be worthwhile; I would suggest
filing a feature request if the perceived need is high enough.
Bear in mind, however, that exclusions can significantly complicate
the understandability of the configuration and that can potentially
cause usability problems down the road.
Cheers!
