Summary:                    Usage of Goto() in an included context can cause
unexpected behaviour
Description: 
I found this interesting little tidbit of usage behaviour yesterday when
writing some dialplan. Here is a simplified example of what I ran into:


[phones]

include => callControl
include => checkVoicemail

[callControl]
exten => preAuth,1,NoOp(well hello there)   ;   <-- this is what gets
matched when you do the Goto() from the checkVoicemail context.

[checkVoicemail]
exten => 8500,1,Goto(preAuth,1)

exten => preAuth,1,NoOp(this does not get hit as you might expect)

It's interesting, but I don't think it belongs in the application help
text, since it's more likely to confuse than assist.  Somewhere in external
documentation is fine.
