It's pretty unclear whether the downtime going to be configured in the attached screenshot will last either one or two hours...

Fixed in current master, although this is not really a bug.

When you choose a non fixed downtime, duration defines how long this downtime goes and start/end just defines where it might start (afaik). Anyway, duration is now hidden when choosing the 'fixed' field

true that. a flexible downtime starts within start and end time and lasts $duration, but only if soft or hard state change triggered - check bug #1228 for more infos.

Of course, that's how it works. And an expert Nagios user immediately understands what effect this forms fields will have once used for either a fixed or a flexible downtime. But there are also a very few poor mere mortals not grown up with Nagios to be found out there ;-) If the form itself isn't able to explain what is going to happen, a direct link to the related documentation would be great! Icinga-Classic offers such indications while hovering interrogation marks.
