That's a can of worms. We don't want the SIP channel to fork one
extension to several extensions without the PBX being aware of each.
That would break the architecture.

The only possible way is to create new SIP peers on the fly and add them
to the hint for the extension and use

exten =>400,1,dial(${HINT})

This will be looked at after 1.2 release.
