I think it makes sense to leave it the way that it is for now, since 
it's very PRI specific. You can opt to copy it into an inherited 
variable early in your dialplan so that it gets copied into all new 
channels that are created, though.

It could be, but it would also increase the size of that structure for 
all non-PRI uses as well, which might not be too helpful.
