      Related to ZBX-9820 and ZBX-5072.

      In older versions of Zabbix the triggers with different expressions but identical names in Overview page were grouped by those names. Agreed that this can cause confusion when used without knowing this behavior, however there were several use cases where this hidden feature was used intentionally.

      As mentioned in ZBX-5072 this can be used in screens where same trigger has different severities thus achieving an effect where multiple triggers are displayed in one row just with different colors. User had intentionally configured the triggers that they don't overlap to not cause unexpected behavior on a single host.

      This is how it looks now.

      The page in particular use case was adapted to a wall mounted TV screen which has now become unusable because all triggers no longer fit in one screen. No, there is no option to use scrolling.

      Please implement a control which can enable / disable the advantage of this grouping feature. Additionally it should be remembered in the user settings since screens are displayed automatically from selected URLs without the need to adjust the filtering by a user every time the page is opened.
