As the notes in that original bug told you, there's lots of other ways
to accomplish this using existing facilities. If your sip.conf is being
generated from a database, then you can easily use a database lookup
function directly from the dialplan to query that same database. It's
possible to add and remove astdb entries via the manager interface, if
you are using that.

Certainly you are welcome to apply this relatively small patch to your
own systems if you find it useful; that's one of the benefits of using
an open source tool, you aren't forced to accept anyone else's idea of
what is 'right' for you :-)
