That would certainly solve the problem. So something like
Dial(SIP/foobar/p&SIP/1.2.3.4/i&SIP/for.bar.baz/h) ?

p for "peer", which would then only do lookups among peers, i for "ip"
which would only accept IP (IPv4 or IPv6, currently) addresses, h for
"hostname" which would do a proper DNS lookup ignoring the peer list,
and so on?
