The hostgroups config item only takes effect for when the hosts are exported via export_nagios_definitions, this is not sent across relations at this stage. We could clear that up by changing the documentation, or better yet add the information to the relation data and update Nagios to include hostgroups in the definition. Since I'd prefer to see the hostgroups info available, as it's useful for operational work, I'll re-mark this as wishlist for the new feature.
