I'd like to see something like the Apache module infrastructure in
place: Define hooks, which every module which is interested in gets
called during certain stages.

E.g. modules holding extension information are called one by one when a
so far unknown extension is hit, authentication modules are called one
by one when SIP authentication is due, etc.

Would that be feasible?
