Sure, I can give a real simple example.

Lets say I have a shared office spare and I want to have my users/agents 
log in and out when they arrive/leave.  So shift one user arrives, sits 
down at a random desk and dials an extension to log in.

Not only do I log this user into their queues (if they belong to a queue), 
I can also pick out the channel they are coming from, be it SIP/<device> or 
Zap/<channel>, etc. and set the MWI to the appropriate location.

It may just have been too far off-topic from your original work for me to 
have included it in the thread.  I just wanted to float the idea and it 
seemed you might have some thoughts concerning it since you've been digging 
around in that code recently.
