True but how can a single light be blinking because extension 1001 is
receiving a call and at the same time, be turned on because extension 1002
is on call ?
Maybe typing on Next button would alternatively show extension 1001 or 1002
status, but without a press on this Next key, a user can't be aware of all
status changes as he would if equiped with dedicated BLF.

But of course, this might be enough for some (operators, ...) but not for
all (group secretary ...).
