No. We have no concept of running dialplan without a call, or related  
to a previous call ("h" extension).

I am afraid of all the apps that expect a call to be running or about  
to be setup.

In voicemail we have hooks to external shell scripts, which is a  
better a more flexible solution.

However, it will be hard for you since we're running this at every  
registration, regardless if it's a first registration or a re- 
registration.

You propably want a hook for when we loose contact as well. I think it  
would be better to hook into the qualify subsystem for these kind of  
events.
