Yeah, I'd like to be able to make that work, too.  Your method is  
pretty ingenious, and gets further that I got to mapping a key  
sequence to a single key.

I think we might just have to petition Polycom for this feature.   
Back in the pre-1.5.x firmware days, I did a feature request with  
them for the ability to disable their call waiting.  I don't know if  
my request really had an effect on them or not, but you can  
effectively do this in the 1.5.x firmware.  Maybe if everybody that  
want this submits a feature request to Polycom, they might just add  
it in a future firmware release.

There also might be some hope to hack together a solution on our  
own.  Anybody good with XML?
