Description

I'm not sure it's accurate to use the "Host" terminology for all machine types, "Host" phrase does usually used as a generic name for machine but now that Foreman has virtualization/cloud management systems integration - the "Host" phrase might imply to machines that run virtual machines (guests) and may be confusing.

I think that a better phrase would be "Machines", their type/role/whatever-name-fits-here could be one of this list ['host', 'guest'/'virtual machine', 'server', 'desktop', 'gateway', 'unspecified', ...], this info should appear as an additional column in the "Hosts" main view.
