Thoughts...

The only way I can think of having hints work this way, is for the pbx admin to specify a list of all the possible forwarding destinations that a user can use, and then creating hints for each of them. This would prevent the user from being able to choose their own forwarding destination that an admin has not previously defined.

This is enough of a change that you're we're talking about creating a whole new feature code module, not merely modification to the existing.

Thanks for the quick reply . I thought it would be simpler and wouldn't require as much modification. On classic PBXs this is a common operation. On Aastra and Mitel workstations with Asterisk and Freepbx it was possible with the XML API and users really appreciated this mode of operation.
