[Asterisk-Dev] Adding a dial option to update the DB on bridge

[Steve Rodgers]

Would it be worth the effort to add a dial option to Dial to update a astdb 
entry when a call is about to be bridged? I'm trying to find a way to save 
${CALLERIDNUM} so that I can flash the hookswitch, get a dial tone, and then 
playback the caller ID. If save ${CALLERIDNUM} to a global database entry, it 
will get overwritten if another incoming call comes in. Is this worth 
persuing?

Steve.
