Thanks for setting me straight.  I had forgotten that the group and the
members have independent notification settings.  We had a member probe with
a delay that was kicking off the group probe that didn't have a delay.   It
makes me wonder if it makes sense for the group probe to honor the
notification delay that was applied to each of the individual member probes.


At least for now I went ahead and removed notifications altogether for the
group probe and left all the notifications to the members.

The label of the member device/probe will automatically be a part of 
the condition field, but I think it makes sense to allow it as a 
separate field in the notifier, too. There are several suggestions 
and enhancement requests regarding the labels of the member probes 
that I'm going to synthesize and try to improve the usefulness of 
that aspect of the probe groups.

Thanks for all the feedback.
