I would suggest that that be added as a optional switch to background to
get the extra digits. While I do not know if A-D are easy to hit with
Talk-Off, it is 4 more potential digits to hit. Also it would be less
surprise to a user to be required a flag to Background() to get those
than it would be to diagnose why you occasionally get dumped in an
invalid extension.
