[Puppet Users] Nagios Types

First off, does anyone use the puppet built in nagios types?

I just started to play with them, and I noticed that nagios_host
writes the nagios_host.cfg file as owned by root, and readable by
root, and no on else. Is there a reason for that? Since nagios runs as
the nagios user, it can''t read the file. Sure, I can change the
ownership later with a file {}, but I shouldn''t need to.

James, hope my tone is acceptable.
