My only comment is that using "extension" to refer to an entry in the current sip.conf is insane. SIP devices are not extensions. They are devices which may or may not have more than one entry in sip.conf (one for each "line"/call appearance). Perhaps <sip_account>.conf would be a better term.

Agreed "extension" was a poor choice.  We are actually thinking in terms of
devices, but had not considered
multiple appearance devices.  Perhaps <account>.conf (since we are placing
them in a sip directory) or <sip_account>.conf (as suggested) would be more
accurate.

We use the MAC address as the SIP User ID. For example the Polycom IP 50x have 3 call appearances. We register each line as a separate SIP user ID. First line MAC-a, second line MAC-b, etc. This helps to prevent anyone from thinking a device is an extension.
