Please create an option (checkbox) for trigger to be one-way trigger only (i e generate event on ON condition and then go aftomatically OFF right away without notification)..
There are numerous triggers which dont need to have any condition and OFF notification:
1. Log event monitoring triggers where you filter errors out of log file. Here if you have several errors in a row they will be missed because trigger will be already in ON condition and trigger goes OFF only after 1 successfull nonerror message.
It would be nice to receive notification for every error and do not receive OFF notifeication when nonerror event happened.
2. Metrics such as "host just has been restarted" doesnt need to have OFF notification. This particular case can be encoded in action rules but if you have many triggers of this kind amount of action rules to maintain will grow.
number 1 cannot be impemented via action rules as you still miss n+1 and following errors since trigger is already on.
