<p>Hi,</p>

<p>When translating strings with the dialplan module, you sometimes end up<br>
with very complex patterns for sanitizing the target string and<br>
performing some replacements, since for a given dialplan id, processing<br>
stops on the first match within the dialplan entries for a given dpid.</p>

<p>The idea is to introduce a "continue" flag (default 0) in the dialplan<br>
table indicating to proceed with processing further dialplan entries<br>
within the given dpid after a match. The use case is to have a sanitize<br>
rule with highest priority which e.g. removes any spaces, dashes and<br>
parentheses from the target string, then with a lower priority do<br>
further processing with the cleaned up string, e.g. stripping leading<br>
double-zeroes or a plus when normalizing to E164 numbers, or replacing a<br>
single leading zero with the country code and so on.</p>

<p>This is particularly useful when a user dials a number from an address<br>
book of some sort (e.g. on a mobile app) where number formats are stored<br>
with country-specific formating characters like "+1-(234)-567 890", and<br>
catching all of that in one rule results in really messy match/replace<br>
patterns.</p>
