Alerting

Custom alert action parameter sets

I've got a custom alert action to RESTfully submitting a message to two different internal systems, and the quickest thing to do was to repeat sets of parameters:

param.endpoint_a = <string>
* The REST endpoint uri
param.endpoint_a_method = [get|post]
* HTTP verb to use

param.endpoint_b = <string>
param.endpoint_b_method = [get|post]

Can this be generalized, both in the .conf.spec and in the default/data/ui/ controls, so that I don't have to cut/paste/edit when a third (or fourth, or fifth) endpoint is introduced?
