This is purely a theory, but wouldn't using an AC pilot point and a hunt 
  group be a way of psuedo-load-balancing connections into a CTI 
application such as CRS server acting purely as an IVR (not running IPCC 
Express)?  Can the CTI route points which CRS server registers be placed 
into a hunt group?

Just thinking that this would be an alternative method of doing IVR 
load-balancing for an IPCC enterprise environment (where you currently 
can accomplish load balancing only within the routing script itself).  I 
can't see any reason to use this (i.e.; it doesn't provide additional 
functionality), but would be interesting to see if it works.
