Summary:                    Features.conf edits to [featuremap] context
Description: 

OS: openSuse 11.0
Asterisk 1.4.23.1
Asterisk GUI 2.0 (r4786)
Menu item: Call Features then Feature Map

Summary:  On a fresh features.conf under [featuremap] there are no
entries.  If custom values are used for Blind Transfer and/or Disconnect
then blindxfer = <value> and disconnect = <value> are placed under
[featuremap].  If you then use the GUI to delete the custom values for
these two items it leaves blindxfer = and disconnect = under [featuremap]
with no values following the entries.

This is where the problem arises, after removing the custom values and
restarting the system the default "#" for transfers no longer works until
you manually edit features.conf and remove "blindxfer =" and "disconnect ="
from [featuremap].  Once these two entries are deleted and Asterisk is
restarted the default values of "#" and "*" will work again.

I am unsure if this is a feature (no pun intended) or a bug.  If you do
not want "#" to allow transfers then you need a mechinism to do so, leaving
"blindxfer =" would allow for this.  On the other hand if I do change it
and want the default values back I must manually edit features.conf to do
so as the GUI does not allow for this.

Based on the paragraph above I was unsure if this was an Asterisk or
Asterisk GUI problem.  If this is how Asterisk is intended to work
("blindxfer =" deactivating blind transfers) then this is an Asterisk GUI
issue.  If not then it may be an Asterisk issue.  I will leave that to you
to sort out.
