We have developed a completely parametrised solution for one client, 
where she can configure contexts without ever having to touch the main 
Asterisk files.  For each context, the dialplan checks configuration 
values for recording, permitting calls to various types of extensions, 
adding to queues, barge-in, etc and enables or disables those services 
depending on the parameters provided.  You can even create custom 
extensions and invoke AGIs at runtime if you need more fine-tuning.

All these customisations -- the client's configuration, the dialplan 
functions, users, etc. are in separate files, #included by the main 
Asterisk configurations.
