Anything would be an improvement over how we have to patch constantly to use transfers now.
As for not having to send # more than transfer, not quite true in my case. One of the companies that is is our building uses our system in a semi-automated fashion to contact banks to verify funds available for creation of customer accounts. They very often need to press # to navigate financial IVR systems and often have to transfer their calls internally.

This would mean that in the majority of cases, things don't change for the end user, which might make it more likely for the patch to be accepted?? Also, I think you are going to transfer a call more frequantly than you will need to send # ...
