Summary:                    Extensions file error after incoming call rules (in
GUI 2.0) and logout
Description: 
In GUI 2.0 (build 3855), after changing/setting incoming call rules and
then logout. During next login, several settings are duplicated in the
extensions.conf file. In build 37XX the GUI would get stuck in a loop
(trying to login) and duplicate the foloeing setting durign each login
loop:
[general]
static = yes
writeprotect = no
clearglobalvars = yes
autofallthrough = yes
static = yes
writeprotect = no
clearglobalvars = yes
static = yes
writeprotect = no
clearglobalvars = yes

And then duplicate the following sections again at the bottom of the
file:
[general]

[globals]

In build 3855, the GUI has a similar response after setting incoming
rules, perform logout, then login, except no crash loop is detected, but
the settings are duplicated as follows for each manual login after setting
incoming rules.
[general]
static = yes
writeprotect = no
clearglobalvars = yes
autofallthrough = yes
static = yes
writeprotect = no
clearglobalvars = yes
static = yes
writeprotect = no
clearglobalvars = yes

[globals]

RINGTIME = 20
FEATURES = 
DIALOPTIONS = 
RINGTIME = 20
FEATURES =

RINGTIME = 20
FEATURES = 
DIALOPTIONS = 
RINGTIME = 20

I am not sure why these settigns keep getting repeated, but it only occurs
after changing the incoming rules and then logout/login (logout does not
have to be immediately after changing incoming rules).

Clearing browser cache is not a fix, but thanks for the idea :-)

After performing the sequence above (change incoming rules -> logout ->
login), you will have to fix your extensions.conf file for all the repeated
garbage, then close your browser or clear your cache so you can use the GUI
again.

However, the next time you change your incoming call rules, you will have
this problem in your extensions.conf and asterisk may become unstable.

I consider this a show stopper bug, of critical importance as everyone
will make changes to the incoming rules at some point and have errors in
the extensions.conf file.
