callroute module allows temporary redirecting of calls based on CallerID to the entered destinations

Hmm, the concept here is really nice. Before installing it, I imagined that it would auto-magically remember which client to be routed to which extension. Being that you need to set up the routes manually, I don't see how its any different than a dumb-down version of inbound routes.

Also, there is no validation in place to prevent bogus input.

It's main purpose is to allow the end user to route a number to their or another extension via a feature code. The FreePBX setup interface allows any destination to be entered. Although one could do this through inbound routes, the end user doesn't normally have that access.

I agree about the validation, that is something I hope to add.
