On my private network? Why should I complicate a backup solution that
works just because someone else wants to send theirs securely over
insecure facilities? Absolutely, they should be able to use SFTP if they
want it, the same as I should not have to if I don't.

What I really have is one set of criteria that I want to scale up to my
enterprise. Why should I have to implement small systems in nearly 80
locations and integrate them all when adding a reasonable feature to
CallManger would be far more effective?

Lots! But the salemen in my stores don't care about extension mobility,
softphone or video conferencing. What they DO want is all-call like
their old key system had and *I* want to give them that without wiring a
dozen speakers in offices, warehouses and showrooms and telling the
manager there, ultimately responsible for the costs at his branch, that
his new $10,000 phone system can't do it.
