 Description   

Currently when creating a new item it is possible to change the host that will contain the item. Same for applications and web scenarios. This feature is hardly helpful and causes difficulties with implementation of ZBXNEXT-1407.

To remove this feature we'll need to:
1. Forbid creating item and applications when no host is select in the list. That way we'll always now, to which host the object belongs to. For consistency, we should do the same for triggers (it's already done for graphs).
2. Then the "host" field can be completely removed from the application, item and web scenario forms.

This should be done before continuing work on ZBXNEXT-1407.

(1) The "create trigger" button must also be disabled if no host is selected in the trigger configuration page.

(2) Please revert the change to the user agent select in the web scenario form. Such changes should be done in separate tasks.

(3) Cannot create a web scenario with selected host.

[Create scenario] button is disabled if URL doesn't have hostid parameter.

Simple way to reproduce the issue:

  • open any web scenario configuration form;
  • press [Cancel] button

tomtom Now empty mass update on items disables them. But look like this problem does not appear in trunk anymore, so this can be closed
