I'm beginning to look at the issue of escalating alerts. 
Does that sound like it would be useful?
I like this feature and wouldn't mind having it, for many of the same reasons already echoed by others on the list.

Just so I understand, though, an ack by a person only prevents alerts from being sent out to other in their same level.  Some one above or below still gets them, unless they ack the alert themselves?

Say a level 1 guy acks the alert.  It still goes to 0 & 2, right?  Or would it just go to 2 and no longer to 0?
