The problem with your work around is that you are monitoring the same device multiple times. It would be nice if items were an object in a database, versus unique objects on a map. Then you could display the same device in multiple maps and only monitor the object one time.
This would allow you to lay out a logical diagram of your network, but then create separate maps for Business Applications and interacting systems.
