FEATURE REQUEST: Group Items that Do Not Contribute to Group Status

I would like to request a new feature for the NPM product: The ability to include items into a group but mark them so that they do not contribute to the overall group's health status. For instance, we have systems that we include in various groups that are ancillary to the group-- i.e., "interesting but not required". If one of those is down or troubled, it brings down the status of the whole group, whereas the remainder of the group-- meaning the part that matters, is actually just fine. It's nice to be able to open the group and see all of the systems, and I'd rather not have to have two groups-- would it be possible to add a flag to the nodes in a group regarding whether or not they contribute to the group status?
