that proposal highly depends on what you interpret into "parameters".
the initial post does not clarify on the issue, so it's highly likely
that your attempt is correct. _if_ parameters are just command
arguments, i.e. thresholds to be passed to a command call.
_if_ parameters are service attributes though, which should be interited
/ excluded somehow, that trick does not work, as they are static on
configuration object processing where macros are not allowed / resolved
(although it would be nice, but that won't happen with 1.x).
