This is analogous to a blind transfer using 'normal' phones. In sipXecs, you will be permitted to transfer Woof to Kevin only if you have the necessary permissions to call Kevin directly. In other words, when transfering someone, you will be able to transfer him to whatever destination you have permisssions to call.
