I thought this would be problematic. In the one instance we implemented it, no issues. They had the "night mode" feature on their Comdial system before sipXecs. Departmentally there can be one phone per department to do this. If the phone loses power, that would be a problem. With a Polycom phone we tested it and IT REMEMBERS the forward function at reboot, so the setting is not lost, but the system is on POE with a UPS on it anyway. I thought it was wicked cool it could keep the setting, but I haven't tried it with a config change and remembering it. It's always a good idea to put this phone in its own group, that way you avoid touching it except when needed, doing maintenance after hours is fine, but screwing up call forwards is not cool.
