I've done something like this in the past when I've needed per-context 
processing but wanted to re-use the same basic logic.  I point the 
incoming device to [inside-sip], but put all of the generic logic in 
[inside].  Then I do a goto in [inside-sip]:

[inside]
   exten => 2000,1,Dial(foo)
   exten => 2001,1,Dial(bar)
   ...

[inside-sip]
   exten => _.,1,SetVar(areacode=206)
   exten => _.,2,Goto(inside,${EXTEN},1)
