That's a feature that's being looked at, but we don't have any firm
plans yet.

At present, the way most phones retrieve configuration information is
too limited - there is no way to tell the phones "try one of the
following redundant locations".  However, that is a feature of a new
Technical Recommendation on SIP User Agent Configuration that is being
worked on in the SIP Forum [1].  The latest draft documents for that
group are available [2].  

I hope and believe that we will be able to include support for this new
standard in sipXecs 4.2 (we already support a significant fraction of
it).  Whether or not users can leverage that depends on what phones
support it (ask your phone vendors).
