Subject: failure counters in the event-05 mib

Why is there only one global failure counters and not a failure counter 
for each trigger? With such a private failure counter the manager knows
which trigger has the problems.

Suggestion: add to the event MIB a special failure object in the 
mteTriggerTable:

mteTriggerFailures OBJECT-TYPE
    SYNTAX      Counter32
    MAX-ACCESS  read-only
    STATUS      current
    DESCRIPTION
        "The number of times an attempt to check for this trigger
        condition has failed."
    ::= { mteTriggerEntry xx }
