Thanks for the reply. That could definately work for the 'add more
info' case.
It doesn't really address the 'I would like to know a relative
importance of alerts' case. What do people generally do for this
particular problem ?
(To repeat, the problem is 'making it clear which alarms are higher
priority so that when you have a 100 at a time you know what to work on
first')
Today, the problem is that only people that really understand our whole
system understand the priorities of alarms, and this is impossible to
transfer to the operators.

If the docs say that 'in the future this will be used to display in the
web cgi's', I assume the case was already made by someone else, no ?
Thanks
