[asterisk-dev] Sound path

[Philip A. Prindeville]

I was wondering if it would make sense to allow Asterisk to be 
configured to have a $PATH-like functionality to locate sound files, so 
that it would search in multiple places until it found a match.

We could use this to allow looking-aside for custom-sounds, alternate 
languages for bi- or tri-lingual regions (think Switzerland, Belgium, 
and Canada)... or even putting a custom-sounds directory first so that 
the contents of "stock" sound files could be overridden with locally 
produced content.

Make sense?

The complexity to support this wouldn't be more than a dozen extra 
lines... (including parsing config file).
