From <a href="http://voip-info.org" target="_blank">voip-info.org</a>, it says the s priority is used when "different patterns may match at the same point in the extension and act differently for them", but couldn't you basically do the same thing with priority labels? How would you ever end up with different patterns matching at the same point in an extension? Where is your priority 1?</div>

I will note that Kevin Fleming wrote the 's' feature into the code before he worked at Digium and still owned the company I now run... I didn't understand his design at all for a long time, but now it's second nature.</div>
