I'm not sure how that restricts you from using a dialplan trick, since the 
originate you're doing from your AMI interface is still going to execute 
dialplan (or could).

Additionally, I don't remember any of that information in your original
email.
You should give all relevant information so people can give you a good answer. 
I'm reasonably confident there are enough methods to get what you want
though
without a new configuration option.

However, without more information about how what you're really trying to do,
I
can only speculate.
