asterisk users - Nov 2005 - Asterisk 1.2 Change in: agi_channel

I am testing out Asterisk 1.2 released today and got the following problem.

In my AGI script when running Asterisk 1.2 I get the following AGI variable:
agi_channel: IAX2/80.229.221.228:4569-2

In all earlier versions of Asterisk including Beta 1.2 I got the following:
agi_channel: IAX2/70104@80.229.221.228:4569-3

in the new CSV logs we have the same.
"","70200","70103","default","""Are""
<70200>","IAX2/80.229.221.228:4569-2"

70104 is my IAX user.

It looks like there is no clear way to extract the IAX user executing the
call anymore.

I have not been able to find this change documented anywhere.

Is it by design or a bug?

It was changed without specific notice, because you could not rely on 
the IAX2 user name always being present in the channel name anyway. The 
other channel drivers also do not put the user name into the channel 
name, so now it's consistent.
