So far, there's only one queue, and it's members are always the same.

With dynamic queue members, how do you solve the problem of

Yes --- I was looking for a way to do that, and the only way I found was 
using a queue.  I have two cases in one of which a queue is just right 
while ringing several phones at once and not having a queue would be 
better in the other.
