+1 Just hide them away under the advanced settings, don't remove them. A prime example of when you might need them is when you add an external line to the phone. Perhaps the external SIP server it's registering it to needs some obscure setting turned on. Also, there are useful settings that are not there such as on Polycom 32x and 33x series phones, the ability to swap the CID name<->number display. The best thing sipXecs has above all other open source platforms is the endpoint management. Please don't start watering it down or you'll end up with something as basic as the Fonality/trixbox pro management interface (basically the only things you can configure are the mac address and phone model). If anything I think the phone config should have MORE options, such as the ability to add custom XML to polycom sets. As a matter of fact, this has already been written by Eric Varsanyi, just didn't make it into the 4.2 release.
