Problems supressing yellow alerts

Howdy all,

I wanted to see if anybody else had any experience /w this before I go poking at code.

I've got a test (called 'if_load') that I want to suppress yellow alerts for.  Now I've tried three methods for doing this: 

. using the 'NOPROPYELLOW:if_load' explicity for each host.
. using 'NOPROPYELLOW:if_load' in conjunction with a .default. host statement
. using --nopropyellow=if_load in the bbgen cmd line in hobbitlaunch.cfg

In the first two cases, I get a "Suppressed warnings (yellow): if_load" in the 'info' screen of all defined hosts.  When using --nopropyellow method, I dont even get a msg in the info screen (even after restarting hobbit).

Regardless of which method I use, yellow alerts for if_load still trickle upwards to the bb2 screen.  Anybody seen anything like that?

Regards,
-Eric
