Summary:                    [patch] Background application not use 'context'
parameter
Description: 
Writing application I have discovered, that Background application exit to
original extension even if `context` parameter used. It exit in context
specified only in case if it have one-digit exension. That patch always set
context from application argument.

---------------------------------------------------------------------- 
The current code is functioning as intended. If you look at the
documentation, you'll see the following:

"If a 'context' is specified, this is the dialplan context that this
application will use when exiting to a dialed extension."

The key words there are "dialed extension." Your patch is changing the
behavior of BackGround to exit to the specified context unconditionally.
The intended purpose of the parameter is to exit to that context only if we
detect DTMF while the file is playing and an extension exists in the given
context that matches the DTMF we received.

I am closing this since this is not a bug.
