The text states that asterisk cannot do "secretarial" functions, meaning one person, or admin, cannot answer multiple lines.  

This relates a bit to my recent post, asking about servicing multiple lines.  

Implication is that asterisk can do that, but I am now concerned that there is no "uber function" that can allow a single person answer any line, for reasons of convenience or design.  Problem is, this was understood, rightly or wrongly, to exist, in preliminary inquiries (not here) and is a part of a potential clients desire.

Can someone enlighten me?
