 Country Code problems
I sure hope I don't come across as picking on this Zimlet; I think it's great. However, I hit another issue that may be easily resolved. If one clicks to dial a number with a "+" that happens to be in one's own country, it attempts to access it via international dialing. For example, my signature has +1 207-985-7880 and I am in the US. If I click to dial or right click and dial, it erroneously dials 01112079857880.
May I suggest a per user country code. If the country code in the number matches the user's country code, the + expansion logic is skipped. Per user is important for installations operating in multiple countries.
I would suggest two related changes. When right click dialing, should we show the complete dialing string? This would allow the user to edit erroneous international expansion, e.g., they are visiting another country.
May I suggest a two tiered evaluation of the user's country code. There would be a zimlet configuration parameter in the xml configuration file for the default and there would be a user override in preferences. I would suggest the same for user context.
