What would make my life easier is add a contextual 
"add" menu item on the right click of a primary host 
entry like this:

(format the text below as Courier or other fixed width 
font for best results!)

The selected monitor would then be populated with its host
information, host address, hosts prettyname, dependency 
information and duplicated alert information.  The Check 
would be the one selected with reasonable defaults (or all blanks)
for the specific check so the admin only has to change say 
5 fields for the monitor to be fully operational.

This could be considerably faster than the CTRL-D since I have 
to change the host name, pretty name, dependant upon, Check param's
and alert param's.  (We have lots of people who are responsible
for different groups of machines so even the alerts differ between 
monitors)
