This should should be quite easy to implement - we can add the 'none' 
option to disable the alerts in such setups.

Even configuration workaround is possible already with monit:

When the global alert is set, the service may override the setup localy. 
When you want to it for some particular service, you can just choose 
some event which won't occure or occures rarely, for example:

--8<--
set alert address@hidden

check host ...
  alert address@hidden on {timeout}
--8<--

In the case of the check host the address@hidden will receive the alert just 
on monitoring timeout (privided the timeout statement is used to disable 
monitoring on excesive service failures/recovery attempts). Other 
services will inherite the global address@hidden setting which allows all 
alerts to be delivered.
