Please add the ability to get the extension display name from the User Manager.
This should allow picking the "Display Name" or "First Name" values or manual entry.
The primary reason for this request is when User Manager is connected to LDAP or Active Directory and the information is already there, the same information should be used with the Extension if the two are linked.
We have had some staffing turnover and re-assign the Extension in Active Directory. This correctly changes the user on the phone but does not change the "Display Name" shown when the user makes a call.
