>The obvious alternative is to use the extension as the sip UID:

Use the extension as the UID and add the mac address as a comment. Like so:

[123]
; Joe Smith
;mac=000E08DA0409
secret = blahblah
... and so on and so forth

This will give the best of both worlds. The mac is readily available and the
dialplan is clear. I usually try to go one further and setup dhcp to set the
last octet of the IP address to the extension number. This makes it easy to
point a browser to the phone for configuration as well.
