You can already use Nagios plugins in Monit by using check program. Is there anything specific that are missing?

You can run a Nagios (NRPE) plugin and examine the exit code night now. But if the plugin provides "performance data", and you want to trigger actions on specific performance items, you'll have to write a wrapper that parses the output. Maybe (I'm not sure about it) monit could have a Nagios plugin parser to make it easier. However the names of the datasets to watch is highly dynamic by nature...
