It would be great if Monit would have such a feature, execute a script, 
compare the exit-code or the output to a given value and set the monitoring 
status based on that test.

So one could monitor arbitrary things that are too special to have monit a 
built-in test for it.

I thought this has been on the agenda for Monit 5.0 some time ago. I hope this 
will be available in future versions.
