[Asterisk-Dev] Adding Unique CallID to ast_channel structure

[asterisk at billheckel.com]

I have to do this myself in my ACD application ( I am using a channel variable ) yet I have been 
unable to link it to the records in CDR due to the channel not being passed to the CDR module.

I would really like this feature!
