Having Icinga2 Compat on my plate, I wanted to test the "custom dictionary to customvar name/value" functionality with objects.cache until I realized that the Classic UI does not support custom variables at all.

It's not quite true, as the hosts and services have already read all custom variables into memory, so accessing them is quite easy. The actual hard part is - well known from Icinga Web - that you must exclude sensitive information like passwords, snmp communities etc.

For that reason, cgi.cfg should include 2 new options

• exclude_customvar_name=
• exclude_customvar_value=

basically the exclude works like the database 'LIKE pattern' in order to filter everything just by the pattern, and not the exact match. If you pass '*' all names/values will be filtered (makes sense in some installations).

the parser should be as modular as the parsing for authorization information already is (hooray for Ricardo's macro magic).

location on the screen - either somewhere on the state information, or a seperated table next to the enable/disable options. will only be shown if there are actually custom vars set for this host/service.
