Already exists, the examples on the website if a TEL field is hit they 
just drop out and dial the PSTN number that was fed into it in the first 
place and not the number returned from DNS...

Beauty of DNS is you can pull all records into the client app and sort 
it out yourself, the DNS records can be given preferences over each 
other, but it's up to the client to follow the RFC or make their own 
rules up on how to handle things... The code we're planning to implement 
will be as RFC compliant as much as we can possibly make it, although I 
pondered before about giving IAX preference from within asterisk as a 
config option...
