No it does not. Originating to an application is a convenience mechanism for when you want to spawn a channel, have a single application execute against it, and hang it up when the application is finished. > 2) If it does not support multiple Application keys, I’ll have to > instruct the Originate action to enter a context in the dialplan, and > pass the sequence of applications in its Variable key.

The dialplan is a configured sequence of actions that you take on a channel; it is not meant for external manipulation of the channel. As noted by Yves, external manipulation of channels can be done using AGI. In AGI, the actions executed on a single channel are all performed externally. Your dialplan ends up being quite simple in that case: [default] exten => originated_channel,1,AGI( ... ) And you simply originate your channel to that context, extension, priority tuple. In your particular case, since you're using AMI for call control, you may want to look into AsyncAGI as well. When the channel enters into an AGI application using AsyncAGI, the same AMI connection can be used to control the channel.
