Summary:                    Enable to use '-' sign in CallerID
Description: 
The function:
    void ast_shrink_phone_number(char *n)
removes the '-' sign from incomming callar ID data.
Since it is a valid SIP address it shell be acceptiable by PBX

A configuration value can determine which signs to remove from caller id

Without a patch, you can't submit a feature request here.

As it it is quite common to punctuate real phone numbers with hyphen, I
don't think unconditionally accepting this character would be acceptable. 
I also seem to remember that the extension pattern matching code ignores
it, for real patterns.
