we do, just to show proper callerid during blind and attended transfers. 
however, using the 'o' option affects the filename of the recording should 
touch recording be used, giving both src and destination extensions the 
same number.

i've been thinking of patching res_features to use cid_rdnis for the 
destination portion of the filename, but if its not guaranteed to be set, 
then this may not work.
