Ideally...

It might be more scalable to just put this in the ENUM DNS tree. So then
the web interface would be a wrapper around this:

	host -t txt 2.1.2.1.5.5.5.0.0.8.e164.org.

Which should give a nice human readable string the same way 
"host -t naptr ..." might give you a SIP uri...

Just have to encourage people to put IN TXT records in beside the IN NAPTR
records...
