Speed Dial behaviour and the the transfer.dsskey_deal_type parameter

[mercutioviz]

Just my $0.02, but I would love to see this behavior be customizable. For example, I can understand why someone might want the current behavior, i.e. a quick and dirty transfer. However, I can understand why some would find it odd that you must press "new call" after pressing "hold" before pressing the speed dial key.

I guess it all comes down to whether the user is more likely to want the key to be a transfer key or a pure speed dial key with no implied transfer. Perhaps the middle ground would be to let the user choose their behavior based upon whether or not they pressed Hold or Transfer. If you press Transfer then speed dial key then obviously the user would want a transfer. If you press Hold then speed dial key then you would want a "new call" instead of a transfer.

That's just my opinion, but it seems to make sense for Hold to mean hold and Transfer to mean transfer...
