Care to expound a bit on that topic for the wiki, with some details as to why?

On a side note.. you can't use exten => h, if you have any hope of getting accurate billing info. Its wise to call ResetCDR(w) in your exten => h, or not use it at all.

 s = Start. Used primarily for dialplans that enter a context with no
 other extension information. Think of a non DID phone line, call comes
 in, and we may only know that the line is ringing and nothing else. Even
 if you knew callerid, you have to still have a place to start. You can
 also think about s as a place to place part of the dialplan that you
 don't want callers to get back to unless they have passed through other
 functions.

 t = Timeout. Used for when calls have been inactive after a prompt was
 played. Also used to hang up a line that has been idle.

 h = Hangup. Used to clean up a call. Could be used to play a goodbye
 message before hanging up. Also seemingly used by the calling card
 people to record end of call for billing purposes.
