The xymondboard message type is shown in the docs with the following syntax:
  xymondboard [CRITERIA] [fields=FIELDLIST]

The xymondXboard message type is shown in the docs with the following:
Retrieves an XML string with the summary of all status logs as for the "xymondboard" command.
but it looks to me like Xboard does not support the 'fields=' capabilities of board. I always get the same fields in my XML, regardless of how I craft my message. My quick look in source-code makes me think the values returned by Xboard are limited and hard-coded.

I'd like to use Xboard, but I'd also like to have it return some XMH tags (like XMH_DGNAME, XMH_DISPLAYNAME). Can anyone suggest a way to do this?
