Maybe because ABCD are valid DTMF events? Maybe because 0 means playback 
completed, not a 0 was pressed?

IIRC there are some inconsistencies in the AGI API that I stumbled across 
when I wrote my library back in '04. If you're not using a library, you 
may want to consider it.

'Comma' is not a valid 'digit' so this the same as '#*0123456789'
