I enjoy how much code this removed.

    This sounds wistful.

    Since the act of calling back into a channel driver during a transfer is new, a small doxygen comment stating when this callback gets called and by what may be useful

    IIRC, the ast_channel must be unlocked prior to call ast_bridge_transfer_blind, as the blind transfer may create a Local channel as part of the blind transfer.
    
    I'm assuming that nounlock is only non-zero if the channel was already unlocked when we call this. It feels odd to have this, however, when we absolutely must have the channel unlocked prior to calling the blind transfer function.

> 3. Previously, channel variables were set on the transferee channel. The clear intention of this was so that when the transferee channel was moved or masqueraded, the variables would be available in the dialplan where the new call was to be made. chan_sip does not have access to the transferee channel now, so instead, it registers a callback to set channel variables on the channel that will end up running dialplan.
> 4. HOLD and UNHOLD frames are not sent to the transferee during a blind transfer. This is done for two reasons. One, the transferee is likely already on hold. Two, the gap between these hold and unhold frames was miniscule and didn't really seem to be there for any purpose.
