      One of the functionality issues I have with the Zabbix Frontend is the lack of ability to enter data into forms (such as a host list) using either a spaced or otherwise delimited entry.

      For example, I might have a list of servers delimited by commas, spaces or semicolons. I would like to be able to copy and paste that list into an input field and have the frontend parse that list and add the servers.

      RIght now, you are required to manually select or type in each server to add it to the list. This is extremely painful for trying to create "dynamic" lists of servers where you are unable to use some other function such as a hostgroup or tag.

      This results in needing to use Grafana for dashboarding as it supports supplying inputs in many delimited forms, even regex. It removes some value from Zabbix Dashboards due to this feature.
