The only issue I can think of here, is if you say, "hey, come back later", 
does that reserve a place for them when they decide to come back? If a peer 
is unlucky enough to keep coming back at the worst times, then that peer will 
never get to talk to Asterisk, while someone else who is more lucky, would 
get to talk to Asterisk all the time.
