Damon,

You could do something like that, but ackcall wouldn't know what queue called it, so the message would end up needing to be fairly generic. After you hit #, then queue would play back a message that can be unique to the queue that called the agent. To get a message unique to the queue that polled the agent, you still will need to modify both app_queue and app_agent.

Unfortunately, my C skills are so poor, doing this would probably take me a week alone. I think your best option would be to either post a bounty, post a feature request on bugs.digium.com and add a note that you will pay for the work, or as a last resort (you might get somewhat flamed for this) go to the asterisk-dev list (or IRC channel might be better) and ask if someone would be willing to do the coding for you (for a fee of course). If you just post the request on bugs.digium.com and don't offer a bounty, you might get the code done for free, but I wouldn't count on it being soon.
