Yes. Phone numbers are stripped of all punctuation and whitespace before
being stored as CLID.

Right now that is the printable character set portion of ASCII. There

The |a is an option to the function, not part of the CNAM. No quotes are
needed, since the Asterisk dialplan expression parser does not really
understand quoted strings anyway.
