Specifying the column/service should be supported.
Extract of bb-hosts(5) -Hobbit 4.2.0 + all-in-one patch):

DOWNTIME=[columns:]day:starttime:endtime:cause[,day:starttime:endtime:cause]

I am not certain but I don't believe the test needs to be (or can be) specified.  Can you try this statement for me?

0.0.0.0 <http://0.0.0.0>; host.tld # DOWNTIME=*:0650:0700

as the man bb-hosts states:

DOWNTIME=day:starttime:endtime:cause

Though I don't believe the cause can be entered as it causes problems for me, at least with multiple comma separated DOWNTIME statements.

    One more time ;-)

    DOWNTIME=ldap:*:0650:0700
    With this config. downtime is working as expected but the info
    column displays "ldap:*:0650:0700"

    DOWNTIME=*:ldap:0650:0700
    downtime is NOT working and hobbitd tells "Bad timespec (missing
    colon or wrong weekdays): ldap:0650:0700". Info column displays
    "ldap:All days:0650:0700"

        Dominique,

        hobbitd is saying your configuration is missing the day
        declaration, can you confirm the asterisk is in there?

           Hi Josh,

           Thanks, but no, this doesn't help.
           If I swap column and day (DOWNTIME=*:ldap:0650:0700) then it is
           displayed correctly -with or without comment-, but hobbitd
        complains
           about:

           "Bad timespec (missing colon or wrong weekdays): ldap:0650:0700"

               Dominique,

               I just ventured into DOWNTIME last week and found that by
               dropping the comment column the problem went away!

               Try changing it to

               DOWNTIME=ldap:*:0650:0700

                  Hi,

                  This was already reported long time ago
                         (http://www.hobbitmon.com/hobbiton/2006/12/msg00240.html) and
               maybe
                  I missed a patch/solution to this.

                  The info column does not display the "Planned downtime"
               correctly:

                  bb-hosts
                  DOWNTIME=ldap:*:0650:0700:Regeneration

                  info column
                  Planned downtime:       ldap:*:0650:0700:Regeneration

                  The info column should display
                  Planned downtime:       ldap:All
        days:0650:0700:Regeneration
