They made it *slower*. Hell, I hoped that this "analog emulation"
nonsense be removed, as it is of absolutely no use whatsoever. It
just slows down your work. When I dial en bloque, the call has to be
instantiated the moment I'm pressing the dial button or lift the
handset. It has been thus for more than a decade in the ISDN world,
but they not only brought back that relic, they even slow it down...

Please, there ought to be a switch to get rid of this! *Including*
any T302 waiting after such a block dial!
