Hi,
my 2 cents ....
first looking from the use cases ...
1. most often we like to have a look at a resource when it has alerts
(history)
2a. we then would like to have a closer look at, acknowledge, delete,
purge all of the alerts or
2b. adjust some alert conditions
3. sometimes it is useful to look at time-related data (availability,
measurements, summary data, availability) to relate the alert
4. sometimes we would like to adjust some config (inventory connection
of our plugin properties - e.g. Logreader settings - or the RHQ agent
config)
5. sometimes it's necessary to restart some agent, restart it's plugin
container, enable/disable debugging (e.g. after some changes have been
made or some alert fired)
(we do this as fast as possible by right-clicking on the agent and
choosing the apropriate operation)
6. we don't use events/content stuff
=> thus I would vote for S,(A,M|A,M),I,Cf,O,(E,Ct|Ct,E)
Kind regards
Andreas :-)

No.
What I mean is that users are for a long time used to have the Monitor tab being
the leftmost. Then we put the "Summary" as leftmost and Monitoring next to it.
And
now Monitoring is "somewhere".
I would rather put it back in 2nd place
- users are used to it
- users are most often using the monitoring tab of a resource's functionality.
