I was afraid that may be the case - The issue I have with that approach is
how do you avoid manually mapping extensions to mac addresses in the
dialplan? Assuming I have a PRI with 100did and I want to use the last 4
digits of the DID as the internal extension, I want to use something like
below to handle the bulk of calls:
exten => _XXXXXXXX,1,Dial(SIP/${EXTEN:4},20)
How can this be accomplished if SIP usernames are mac addresses?, it would
seem to me that sip.conf is the correct place to map an extension to a
device, otherwise I would have an extensions.conf with a manual entry for
each extension making updating it a chore.

It would be
[MAC ADDRESS]
type=peer
...etc..
Or at least, that's how I interpreted what Eric said. I think that's an
excellent approach. THe phones are devices. An extension calls one or
more
devices. Makes a lot more sense than multiple extensions calling multiple
extensions.
Your definition in the sip.conf would be defining devices according to
their
MAC addresses. Your dial plan would call these devices based on
extensions.
exten => 100,1,Dial(SIP/MAC) ; where MAC is the MAC address of the phone
