The "find_hosts" method for query uses this following line of code:

list = Host.recent.with_class(k).send(state).map(&:name)

If a person queries Foreman for certain facts, this will only returns "recent" hosts having those facts.

If a host has no recent reports, it won't be included.

I'm not sure what is the rationale behind this.

Wouldn't it be better if a query returns ALL hosts matching the given facts and classes regardless of recent reports?
