asterisk users - May 2006 - Hints and busy lamps for phones registered on SER

We use SER to front several Asterisk systems. Phones register on SER, 
which also acts as a load balancing and failover proxy for the Asterisks.

Phone account details are held in MySQL, which Asterisk could access but 
does not currently do so. At present, call routing is done on the 
Asterisks using a FastAGI program which does the database access.

We've been asked to implement busy lamps. Looking at voip-info, it seems 
  that all hint configuration is handled statically, and worse needs to 
have dedicated channel names for each phone which won't work with phones 
registered on SER.

Does anyone know of any facilities for handling this scenario?
