[Asterisk-Users] Display called Number or context on X-lite/X-Pro

I found the problem and a probable BUG.
The X-Pro/Lite Softphone is able to display only the CallerIDName info and NOT 
the CallerIDNum info.
After this i think that i found a bug in the chan_sip.
When a call come from my Cisco gateway it contain the Remote-Party-ID flag.
Although i setted in the sip.conf the trustrpid=no i think that the chan_sip 
is still trusting it becouse if i call from a PSTN reserved number i'm not 
able to alter (with SetCallerID or SetCIDNum or SetCIDName) the CallerID 
(Name or Num) at all becouse asterisk is trusting the privacy=full statement 
of the Remote-Party-ID sip header field.
This is the reason i was still getting Unknown on the client on which i want 
to display the NAme of the company that has been called.
To test this i disabled the sending of the Remote-Party-ID on the cisco and 
all it's working OK without it.
I think is better to let chan_sip to be able to alter the CAllerID info both 
if the trustrpid=yes or not becouse the Remote-Party-ID is a usefull field to 
work with and i don't think is correct to disallow changing of CAllerID info 
if  the call is coming from a privacy=full number.
Any comment?
Thanks,
Bye,
Marcello
