This is actually where ConfBridge shines. The flexibility of ConfBridge's menu options lets you build whatever custom actions you want triggered from participants in the conference. If you use the dialplan_exec DTMF menu option [1], you can have the ConfBridge participant bounce out to the dialplan. From there, you would execute Originate to call in another participant. Note that you need to use Originate instead of Dial, as you would otherwise have the participant be bridged in a new bridge with whoever they dialed.
